There are approximately 8 million people in the United States who suffer with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also sometimes referred to as a dual diagnosis. People who have a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of substance abuse disorder. This can sometimes be difficult to asses and treat, and if either are left untreated both might be very damaging for the person, leaving them vulnerable to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these special instances can be severe, sometimes leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specific treatment to work on the co-occurring disorders simultaneously, this can be prevented and clients in Munfordville with co-occurring disorders can be productive and live happily.
With increased awareness, research and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more broad spectrum of services for these clients. Early diagnosis can be vital in these situations, and many people with co-occurring disorders may seek primary care services first before seeking behavioral health services. This offers primary care physicians a special opportunity to diagnose people with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the appropriate treatment resources.
Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders require a more broad spectrum of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are usually offered in hospital and residential programs which can provide services for the initial stabilization process to get them detoxed and off of any medications and drugs they need to stop using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with clients in these settings to treat both issues simultaneously with counseling, behavioral therapy, and mental health services, and before discharge devise a strong relapse prevention and aftercare plan to ensure these clients don't quickly relapse due to either disorder being triggered.
