Mental health treatment has become an important part of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many rehab facilities in Sheboygan Falls also offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services in addition to conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In many instances, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, especially when addiction is present. In many cases, the client doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be taken to help the client become mentally stable, and this can include the use of specific psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many cases however, individuals suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, rehab staff and medical professionals can review medication histories and suggest steps which can be taken to do away with the need for medication. Individuals can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to abuse.
