A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to discover the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a treatment plan that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Columbia comes in. Having someone get substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a different facility isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
