Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which provide rehabilitation to deal with both addiction and mental health concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common circumstance for those involved in substance abuse, as people with mental health problems frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some sort of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors will help individuals through a detailed treatment plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health whilst addressing alcohol and drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe setting is vital to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that may cut across their treatment plan and progress. Rehab counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life including negative relationships or any other things that must be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and abstinen t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop far better coping methods so they are better able to deal with life circumstances better after they depart dual diagnosis rehab rather than returning to alcohol and drugs as an inferior solution.
