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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Big Stone Gap comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for individuals with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
