Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which provide rehabilitation to deal with both mental health and addiction issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for people involved with drug abuse, as people with mental health issues often medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to to feel some form of short-term respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals will help men and women through a comprehensive rehabilitation plan all aimed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health whilst dealing with drug abuse concerns. Providing a safe setting is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain free from distraction from things which could cut across their program and advancement. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life including negative relationships or any other things which have to be addressed in order for the person to remain mentally healthy and abstinen t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment which helps them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are able to better deal with life situations more proficiently once they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than returning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior solution.
