Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Boynton, OK.

Mental health treatment is an essential component of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health problem. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more evident over the last several years, and many rehab programs in Boynton also provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.

In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, especially when addiction is present. In many cases, the client 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, steps can be taken to help the individual become mentally stable, and this might include the use of various psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and medical practitioners can determine medication histories and recommend actions which can be introduced to remove the need for medication. Individuals can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to misuse.
