Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehab to address both addiction and mental health issues simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent circumstance for those involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as individuals with mental health problems frequently self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some sort of short-term relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals will help people through a detailed treatment plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health whilst dealing with drug abuse problems. Offering a secure setting is vital to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain free from distraction from things which may cut across their program and progress. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things that should be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally healthy and sober t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment that helps them develop more effective coping mechanisms so that they are better able to handle life circumstances well after they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than returning to drugs and alcohol as a possible answer.
