Mental health treatment has become an important aspect of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become increasingly evident over the last several years, and many rehab facilities in Boon also provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's mental health issue, especially when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed 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 can include the use of certain psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these circumstances, professional staff and medical practitioners can determine medication records and recommend actions which can be taken to do away with the need for medication. Clients can be carefully weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
