Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Agawam, MA.

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 coupled with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with 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 battling and work out a treatment plan that will successfully address both simultaneously so that the person can lead a sober and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Agawam comes in. Having the person get drug treatment at one center and then having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for clients with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
