Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehabilitation to handle both addiction and mental health issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for those involved in drug abuse, as people with mental health issues often self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some sort of short-term relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors will help men and women through a thorough treatment plan all aimed at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while dealing with drug abuse issues. Offering a safe and secure environment is key to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can be comfortable and remain free from distraction from things that may compromise their treatment plan and advancement. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to spot environmental issues in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things which should be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally healthy and sober t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop more efficient coping methods so they are able to better deal with life circumstances better after they leave dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to alcohol and drugs as an inferior answer.
