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 could be numerous things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a recovery strategy that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that the person can lead a sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Zuni comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment services at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different program isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
