Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Augusta, WV.

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 clinical depression. It may be several 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 find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation plan that will effectively treat both at the same time so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Augusta comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment at one center and then having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
