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 coupled with clinical depression. It could be many things all co-occurring at the same time, 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 due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that individuals can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Hicksville comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is best for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
