A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will effectively treat both at the same time so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Little Neck comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse treatment at one center and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals 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.
