Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Northwood, ND.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will effectively address both simultaneously so that individuals can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Northwood comes in. Having the client receive addiction treatment at one facility and having the person go to a mental health professional at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
