Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which deliver rehabilitation to handle both addiction and mental health issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for people involved in drug abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals will help men and women through a thorough treatment plan all geared towards restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health as well as addressing drug abuse problems. Offering a secure setting is essential so that dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain free from distraction from things that could compromise their program and advancement. Treatment counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or other things that should be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and sober t when they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehab which helps them develop more effective coping methods so that they are able to better deal with life circumstances more proficiently once they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs as a possible answer.
