Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Weems, VA.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will effectively address both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Weems comes in. Having the person get substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person also receive help from a mental health professional 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 program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
