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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will successfully resolve both at the same time so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Gretna comes in. Having someone get drug rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is best for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
