A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, 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 drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully resolve both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Oneonta comes in. Having someone receive addiction rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
