Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Lewiston, 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 a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can live a drug-free and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lewiston comes in. Having someone receive addiction rehabilitation at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is best for people with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
