Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide rehabilitation to handle both addiction and mental health issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for folks involved with drug abuse, as those that have mental health problems often medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals can help people through a thorough rehab plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while also addressing drug abuse issues. Offering a safe environment is vital to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances which may cut across their treatment plan and development. Rehab counselors will continue to work to identify environmental factors in the client's life such as negative relationships or other things which have to be addressed in order for the person to remain mentally healthy and sober t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment which helps them develop more effective coping methods so that they are better able to handle life situations well if they depart dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior answer.
