Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which deliver treatment to handle both mental health and addiction issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for individuals involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as individuals with mental health issues often self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of temporary relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors can help people using a detailed rehab plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health while dealing with alcohol and drug abuse issues. Providing a safe and secure environment is key so that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances which may cut across their treatment plan and advancement. Treatment counselors will work to recognize environmental issues in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things that have to be addressed in order for the person to remain mentally stable and abstinen t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehabilitation which helps them develop more efficient coping methods so that they are able to better deal with life circumstances better if they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of returning to drugs as an inferior solution.
