Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which provide rehab to deal with both addiction and mental health concerns concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common situation for those involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as people with mental health problems often self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some sort of temporary relief from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehabilitation professionals can help people using a thorough rehabilitation plan all geared towards restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health whilst dealing with alcohol and drug abuse issues. Providing a safe setting is key to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel comfortable and remain undistracted from circumstances that could cut across their program and development. Rehab counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental factors 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 stay mentally stable and abstinen t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which will help them develop more effective coping methods so that they are better able to deal with life circumstances well once they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior answer.
