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 coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a recovery plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that individuals can lead a sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Charlottesville comes in. Having the person get 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 and alcohol rehab facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is best for people with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
