Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Depauville, NY.

There are an estimated 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also known as a dual diagnosis. People who have a mental health disorder, whether properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can sometimes be difficult to diagnose and treat, but if either one of them are left untreated both might be very detrimental for the individual, leaving them vulnerable to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these special cases can be severe, at times leading to homelessness, suicide, legal consequences and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specific treatment to handle the co-occurring disorders concurrently, this can be prevented and people in Depauville with co-occurring disorders can be productive and live happily.

With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of treatment for co-occurring substance abuse disorders has come a more broad range of treatment services for these clients. Early intervention can be vital in these circumstances, and many people with co-occurring disorders may seek primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers PCP's a special chance to diagnose people with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment services.

Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders require a more broad spectrum of services than the typical treatment client, services that are normally offered in inpatient and residential programs which can provide services for the initial stabilization process to get them detoxed and off of any medications and drugs they need to quit taking immediately. Doctors and therapists work with clients in these settings to address both issues concurrently with counseling, behavioral therapy, and mental health services, and before discharge come up with a sturdy relapse prevention and aftercare plan to ensure these clients don't immediately relapse due to either disorder being stimulated.
