A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is battling and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively resolve both concurrently so that individuals can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Metairie comes in. Having someone receive addiction treatment services at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for people with more severe 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 to their recovery.
