Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - South Wellfleet, 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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol 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 treatment plan that will successfully address both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in South Wellfleet comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health specialist at a different program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
