Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which provide rehabilitation to deal with both addiction and mental health concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for those involved with drug abuse, as people with mental health problems often medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to to feel some type of temporary relief from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors will help individuals through a comprehensive rehabilitation plan all aimed at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health whilst addressing drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe and secure setting is essential so that dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that could cut across their program and advancement. Rehab counselors will work to identify environmental factors in the client's life including negative relationships or other things that need to be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally stable and sober t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehabilitation which helps them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are better able to handle life circumstances better if they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs and alcohol as a possible option.
