Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehab to deal with both addiction and mental health concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common circumstance for those involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as people with mental health disorders often medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of short-term respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors can help men and women using a detailed rehabilitation plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health as well as dealing with drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe setting is key to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel comfortable and remain free from distraction from things that could compromise their program and advancement. Treatment counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental issues in the client's life including negative relationships or any other things which must be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and abstinen t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment which will help them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so that they are able to better deal with life situations well after they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs as a possible option.
