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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a recovery strategy that will successfully treat both concurrently so that the person can lead a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in North Adams comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one facility and then having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
