Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Alderson, WV.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire 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 causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will effectively treat both simultaneously so that individuals can live a drug-free and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Alderson comes in. Having someone receive substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
