A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in St. George comes in. Having someone receive addiction treatment at one center and then having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a different program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is best for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
