Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - South Richmond Hill, NY.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that the person can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in South Richmond Hill comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment services at one facility and having the person go to a mental health professional at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
