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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Schenectady comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment services at one center and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
