Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehab to deal with both addiction and mental health issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very common circumstance for people involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as those that have mental health issues frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some type of temporary relief from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals can help people using a detailed rehabilitation plan all geared towards restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health whilst addressing substance abuse problems. Offering a safe and secure environment is essential to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be comfortable and remain free from distraction from things that may compromise their treatment plan and development. Treatment counselors will 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 remain mentally healthy and abstinen t once they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehab that helps them develop more effective coping mechanisms so that they are better able to deal with life circumstances more effectively when they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to returning to drugs as an inferior answer.
