Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Cedar Bluff, VA.

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 could be many 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 self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will effectively treat both concurrently so that the person can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Cedar Bluff comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment services at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
