Mental health treatment has become an important part of the treatment of addiction disorders, because many individuals with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last several years, and many rehabilitation centers in Gallup now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In many cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, especially when substance abuse is involved. In many cases, the individual doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be put forth to help the client become mentally stable, and this can involve the use of certain psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many instances however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, professional staff and medical professionals can review medication records and propose steps which can be introduced to eliminate the need for medication. Clients can be harmlessly weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
