Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Ridge, NY.

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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to discover the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Ridge comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment at one facility and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for people with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
