Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Fort Defiance, VA.

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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can lead a drug-free and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Fort Defiance comes in. Having the client get drug treatment services at one facility and then having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
