Dual diagnosis rehabs are programs which provide rehab to handle both addiction and mental health concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent situation for individuals involved with substance abuse, as people who have mental health problems frequently self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some kind of temporary relief from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors can help individuals using a thorough treatment plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health while also addressing drug abuse issues. Offering a secure setting is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances that may cut across their program and development. Rehab counselors will continue to work to spot environmental factors in the client's life including negative relationships or any other things that must be addressed in order for the individual to remain mentally healthy and sober t whenever they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which will help them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are able to better deal with life circumstances more effectively when they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to returning to alcohol and drugs as an inferior solution.
