Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which deliver rehab to deal with both mental health and addiction concerns concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent situation for individuals involved in drug abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of temporary relief from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals will help people using a detailed treatment plan all aimed at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health as well as addressing drug abuse problems. Offering a secure setting is key to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel comfortable and remain free from distraction from things which may compromise their treatment plan and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental factors 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 remain mentally stable and abstinen t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral treatment that helps them develop more efficient coping methods so that they are better able to handle life circumstances more proficiently once they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to returning to alcohol and drugs as a possible solution.
