A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully address both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Sevier comes in. Having someone receive addiction treatment at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a different facility isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
