Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Afton, TN.

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 may be many things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the individual is battling and work out a treatment plan that will successfully address both simultaneously so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Afton comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one center and having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
