Mental health treatment has become an important component of the treatment of addiction disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many treatment programs in Stroudsburg now provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above conventional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.
In most instances, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Often, the client doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be completed to help the individual become mentally stable, and this might include the use of specific counseling, therapies, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people struggling with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and mental health professionals can determine medication histories and propose steps which can be introduced to eliminate the need for medication. Patients can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
