Mental Health Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Paris, MS.

Mental health treatment has become an important aspect of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, due to the fact that many individuals with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health problem. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become increasingly evident over the last few years, and many rehab centers in Paris now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when addiction is present. Often, 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 clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be taken to help the individual become mentally stable, and this may involve the use of certain psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and mental health practitioners can determine medication records and propose actions which can be introduced to eliminate 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.
