Mental health treatment is often an important part of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, because a considerably large number of individuals with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly apparent over the last several years, and many treatment programs in Utica also offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, especially when substance abuse is involved. Often, the person doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be completed to help the client become mentally stable, and this can include the use of specific psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, people struggling with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, professional staff and medical specialists can review medication histories and recommend steps which can be taken to do away with the need for medication. Clients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
