A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the root causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Springfield comes in. Having someone get drug treatment at one center and then having to go to a mental health professional at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
