A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Welsh comes in. Having someone get drug treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for individuals with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
