Mental health treatment has become an important component of the treatment of addiction disorders, due to the fact that a significantly large number of people with an addiction disorder struggle with a co-occurring mental health issue. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly apparent over the last several years, and many rehab facilities in Ware now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services in addition to traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.
In most instances, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. In many cases, the person doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, corrective steps can be completed to help the person resolve issues and become more stable, and this may include the use of specific counseling, therapies, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or perhaps misusing their medications. In these instances, treatment staff and mental health practitioners can evaluate medication records and propose actions which can be introduced to do away with the need for medication. People can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to abuse.
