Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide rehab to handle both mental health and addiction issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common situation for those involved with drug abuse, as individuals with mental health issues often medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to to feel some form of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help people using a comprehensive treatment plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health whilst addressing substance abuse problems. Providing a safe and secure setting is key to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be comfortable and remain undistracted from circumstances that could cut across their treatment plan and development. Rehab counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or other things that must be addressed in order for the person to be mentally stable and sober t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab that helps them develop more effective coping methods so they are able to better deal with life circumstances more proficiently when they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior solution.
