Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Compton, MD.

Mental health treatment is often an important aspect of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, because a significantly large number of people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health issue. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become increasingly evident over the last few years, and many rehabilitation centers in Compton now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services together with traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most instances, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Often, the client doesn't even realize they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be taken to help the client become mentally stable, and this may involve the use of various psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people struggling with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and mental health practitioners can determine medication histories and recommend steps which can be put forth to remove the need for medication. People can be harmlessly weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to misuse.
