Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Portland, 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 combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that the person can live a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Portland comes in. Having the person receive addiction rehabilitation at one center and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. 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 constraints to their recovery.
