A hospital inpatient program is often a beneficial choice for someone who has a co-occurring mental health disorder, and for someone with other medical requirements which should be overseen by doctors. Those who partake in this program can be helped by mental health services while dealing with issues who have prompted their drug use. Very often those that have a co-occurring mental health disorders use alcohol or drugs to self medicate rather than efficiently addressing their problem. Professional rehab counselors in the hospital inpatient program can help individuals turn the tide so that they not find the need to use alcohol and drugs like this, and instead create solutions to make their mental health disorder more manageable.

By way of example, even subtle environmental changes in one's life can decrease stress and place a new perspective on things so the individual doesn't feel compelled to abuse drugs or alcohol. Therapy in the hospital inpatient program will help reveal such issues so they can be handled.
