Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehabilitation to address both mental health and addiction concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent situation for people involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as individuals with mental health disorders often self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some type of temporary relief from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation professionals can help individuals through a comprehensive rehabilitation plan all geared towards restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health whilst addressing drug abuse issues. Offering a safe and secure setting is essential to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain free from distraction from things that could cut across their treatment plan and progress. Treatment counselors will work to identify environmental factors in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or any other things which have to be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally healthy and abstinen t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab which will help them develop far better coping methods so that they are able to better deal with life situations well once they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs as an inferior answer.
