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 clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need 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 struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will effectively treat both at the same time so that individuals can live a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Ashby comes in. Having someone receive drug treatment at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
