Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which deliver rehab to deal with both addiction and mental health issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very common circumstance for individuals involved with substance abuse, as people who have mental health problems frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some kind of temporary relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help individuals through a comprehensive rehab plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health while also dealing with drug abuse issues. Offering a safe setting is vital to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances which could compromise their program and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to spot environmental factors in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or any other things that should be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and abstinen t when they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which helps them develop more effective coping methods so they are able to better handle life circumstances better after they depart dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs and alcohol as a possible answer.
