Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehabilitation to address both mental health and addiction concerns concurrently. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent circumstance for folks involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as people who have mental health disorders often self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of short-term relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation professionals can help men and women through a comprehensive rehab plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health while dealing with alcohol and drug abuse problems. Providing a safe and secure setting is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances which could cut across their treatment plan and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to identify environmental factors in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or any other things which need to be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally stable and abstinen t after they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab which will help them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are able to better handle life circumstances better if they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior solution.
