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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and come up with a treatment plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can lead a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Bellingham comes in. Having someone get drug rehabilitation at one center and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
