Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehab to deal with both mental health and addiction issues simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very common situation for those involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some kind of temporary respite from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors can help men and women using a detailed rehab plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health while dealing with alcohol and drug abuse concerns. Offering a safe and secure setting is essential to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain free from distraction from things that could cut across their program and development. Treatment counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental factors in the client's life including negative relationships or other things which need to be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally stable 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 situations more effectively if they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to returning to drugs as a possible solution.
