Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Butner, NC.

There are approximately 8 million people in the United States who suffer with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also sometimes referred to as a dual diagnosis. People who have a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can be challenging to evaluate and treat, but if either one of them are left untreated both might become more damaging for the person, leaving them exposed to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these special cases can be very serious, at times leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With proper diagnosis and specialized treatment to handle the co-occurring disorders concurrently, this can be avoided and people in Butner with co-occurring disorders can be productive and live happily.

With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more wide spectrum of services for these individuals. Early diagnosis can be vital in these situations, and many individuals with co-occurring disorders may look for primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers primary care physicians a special chance to diagnose people with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment resources.

People with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders need a more broad spectrum of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are commonly offered in hospital, inpatient, and residential rehab programs which can provide services for the initial detoxification process and off of any drugs and medications they need to quit taking immediately. Doctors and therapists work with clients in these settings to handle both disorders simultaneously with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before program completion come up with a sturdy aftercare plan to ensure these clients don't quickly relapse due to either disorder being triggered.
