Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehabilitation to deal with both addiction and mental health issues simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common circumstance for individuals involved in substance abuse, as people who have mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some sort of short-term respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help individuals using a detailed rehabilitation plan all directed at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health whilst dealing with alcohol and drug abuse issues. Offering a secure environment is vital to ensure dual diagnosis clients can feel comfortable and remain free from distraction from things that could compromise their program and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to spot environmental issues in the client's life including negative relationships or any other things that have to be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally stable and abstinen t after they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which helps them develop more effective coping methods so they are better able to deal with life situations better once they depart dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior answer.
