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 coupled with depression. It could be many things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a rehabilitation plan that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Rensselaer comes in. Having someone get substance abuse rehabilitation at one center and then having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a different facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
