Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Merrimac, MA.

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 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 stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person 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 struggling with and work out a treatment plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Merrimac comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health professional at a different facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
