A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Dallas comes in. Having the person get drug treatment at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
