Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - St. Joseph, TN.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in St. Joseph comes in. Having the person get drug treatment services at one center and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for clients with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
