Mental health treatment has become an important aspect of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, because a significantly large number of individuals with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly apparent over the last few years, and many treatment facilities in Massillon also provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's mental health issue, particularly when addiction is present. In many cases, the individual doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, treatment steps can be taken to help the person resolve issues and become more stable, and this may incorporate the use of specific counseling, therapies, and possibly medication administration or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, rehab staff and medical practitioners can determine medication histories and propose steps which can be taken to eliminate the need for medication. Clients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
