Mental health treatment has become an essential part of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more apparent over the last several years, and many rehabilitation programs in Central Islip now provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services in addition to traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.
In many cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, corrective steps can be put forth to help the person become mentally stable, and this might include the use of specific psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, individuals struggling with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or possibly misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and medical professionals can determine medication records and recommend steps which can be taken to eliminate the need for medication. Patients can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
