Mental Health Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Greenwood Springs, MS.

Mental health treatment has become an important aspect of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many rehabilitation centers in Greenwood Springs now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services in addition to conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, particularly when addiction is present. In many cases, the person doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling 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 certain psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, people suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, treatment staff and mental health professionals can assess medication records and recommend steps which can be introduced to eliminate the need for medication. Clients can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
