Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Lake George, NY.

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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a recovery plan that will effectively treat both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lake George comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
