Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehabilitation to deal with both mental health and addiction issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent situation for those involved with drug abuse, as individuals with mental health problems frequently medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some type of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation professionals will help people through a detailed rehabilitation plan all directed at restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health whilst addressing alcohol and drug abuse problems. Providing a secure setting is essential so that dual diagnosis clients can be comfortable and remain undistracted from circumstances that may compromise their treatment plan and advancement. Treatment counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative people in their lives or other things which need to be addressed in order for the person to be mentally stable and abstinen t when they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral treatment that helps them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so that they are better able to deal with life situations well when they depart dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to drugs and alcohol as a possible solution.
