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 a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to discover the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in St. Albans comes in. Having the client get addiction treatment services at one center and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a different program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
