Assessment
Dual-diagnosis programs treat the condition of having a mental illness and substance use disorder at the same time. A lot of people who have mental and physical illnesses can develop a dependency on drugs or alcohol. Many people who struggle with pain, either physical or mental, can turn to self-medicating with prescription pills or illegal substances and alcohol to help control their symptoms. This is the reason that it is beneficial to the client to enter into a dual diagnosis rehab center for their addiction and mental health concerns. Many of the dual diagnosis treatment centers treat the individual by using an integrated approach, working with both psychological and alcohol or drug dependency. This type of program will help not only with the treatment of addiction but also help find the underlying condition that started the addiction in the first place. If you are ready to stop this cycle of addiction, give us a call and we can discuss treatment options today.Rehabilitation for a dual diagnosis case has to be specialized and the mental illness has to be taken into account for treatment to be successful. Those with a mental illness cannot be confronted or torn down about their addiction issues. Our experts in treating co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems will set the pace for treatment so the client does not feel overwhelmed.
Do not try to stop your medications on your own. Some medication withdrawal and detoxification can be life-threatening. We will make sure that your detox is done safely and medically supervised. Help is only a phone call away. If you need immediate placement into a dual-diagnosis treatment program, please call us directly and we will assist you immediately.
Co-occurring disorders separate dual-diagnosis clients from those who are only suffering from addiction alone. Mental illness and addiction may share many of the same symptoms and both need to be treated at the same time, to treat the whole problem. If these people do not receive treatment from a dual-diagnosis rehabilitation facility, the problems are more than likely to worsen over time.
