Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which provide rehab to address both mental health and addiction issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common circumstance for those involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as those that have mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to to feel some type of short-term relief from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals will help people through a detailed treatment plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while also addressing alcohol and drug abuse concerns. Providing a safe and secure setting is key so that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain free from distraction from things which may cut across their treatment plan and development. Rehab 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 have to be addressed in order for the person to be mentally healthy and sober t once they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop more effective coping mechanisms so they are better able to deal with life circumstances more effectively after they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to alcohol and drugs as an inferior answer.
