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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered 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 ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully resolve both at the same time so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Roanoke comes in. Having the person get addiction rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
