Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which provide treatment to handle both mental health and addiction concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent situation for people involved in substance abuse, as people with mental health issues frequently self medicate with drugs and alcohol to to feel some sort of short-term relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals will help men and women through a thorough rehab plan all geared towards restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health while also dealing with drug abuse concerns. Providing a secure setting is vital to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that could compromise their program and progress. Treatment counselors will continue to work to spot environmental factors in the client's life including negative relationships or other things that should be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally healthy and abstinen t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which will help them develop more effective coping methods so that they are able to better handle life situations well when they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs as an inferior answer.
