Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which provide rehabilitation to deal with both addiction and mental health issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent situation for those involved in drug abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of short-term respite from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals can help men and women using a thorough rehabilitation plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health as well as dealing with substance abuse issues. Offering a safe environment is key to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel comfortable and remain free from distraction from things that could compromise their treatment plan and progress. Treatment counselors will continue to work to spot environmental issues in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things that should be addressed in order for the person to remain mentally stable and sober t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehab which will help them develop more efficient coping methods so they are able to better deal with life situations more effectively after they leave dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs as an inferior answer.
