Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Canada, KY.

Mental health treatment is often an essential aspect of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, because many individuals with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health issue. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many rehab programs in Canada now offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services in addition to traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.

In most instances, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, especially when substance abuse is involved. Often, the client doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be completed to help the person become mentally stable, and this may include the use of various psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, people suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or perhaps misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and medical practitioners can review medication histories and recommend actions which can be introduced to eliminate the need for medication. People can be safely weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
