Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Houlton, WI.

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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively address both simultaneously so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Houlton comes in. Having someone get substance abuse treatment services at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for people with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
