Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide treatment to address both addiction and mental health concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common situation for individuals involved in drug abuse, as those that have mental health disorders often medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of short-term relief from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors can help men and women through a thorough rehab plan all geared towards restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health whilst dealing with substance abuse issues. Providing a secure setting is vital to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain free from distraction from things that may compromise their program and advancement. Treatment counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or other things which should be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and sober t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral treatment which helps them develop far better coping methods so they are better able to handle life circumstances more effectively after they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to alcohol and drugs as a possible option.
