Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Wardville, OK.

There are approximately 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also sometimes referred to as a dual diagnosis. People who do have a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can sometimes be challenging to evaluate and treat, but if either are left untreated both might become more damaging for the person, leaving them open to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these unique cases can be severe, sometimes leading to homelessness, suicide, legal consequences and premature death. With proper diagnosis and specialized treatment methods to address the co-occurring disorders concurrently, this can be prevented and people in Wardville with co-occurring disorders can be productive and live happily.

With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more wide spectrum of treatment services for these individuals. Early intervention can be key in these circumstances, and many individuals with co-occurring disorders may look for primary care services first before seeking behavioral health services. This offers PCP's an unique opportunity to identify individuals with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment resources.

Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders require a more extensive array of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are usually offered in hospital, inpatient, and residential rehab programs which can provide services for the initial detoxification process and off of any medications and drugs they need to stop using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with patients in these settings to handle both issues concurrently with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before program completion come up with a sturdy relapse prevention and aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't quickly relapse because of either disorder being triggered.
