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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively address both simultaneously so that individuals can live a sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Forest Hills comes in. Having someone receive drug rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for clients with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
