Depression and Anxiety

Depression and anxiety are often grouped together in the mental health world because they often exist together. Sometimes, depression can trigger anxiety and vice versa.

Very often, people who suffer from depression or anxiety or both will try to self-medicate their conditions with substances. Those substances provide an escape from reality, which depression and anxiety sufferers might not want to face without their assistance. The problem is that these kinds of problems cannot be solved with alcohol or drugs, so the problems are still there when the effects have worn off.

With proper treatment, it is possible to manage the symptoms of depression and anxiety, but if they are not treated, there’s a very high chance that even after rehabilitation, sufferers will go back to the substances they used before.

Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that is also sometimes called being “manic depressive.” It is characterized by very high mental highs, and very low mental lows. During manic periods, people may work frantically, be very happy and seem very productive. But that’s not a sustainable state, and manic periods are usually followed by severe depression. Sometimes, people who are in a depressive state from bipolar disorder can’t even get out of bed in the morning.

Many people who have untreated bipolar disorder will abuse substances during both manic and depressive periods. They might use different kinds of substances at different times, and usually, the substances might mask the underlying problem, but actually make it worse.

If bipolar disorder is not treated in a patient who undergoes addiction therapy, there’s a high chance they will relapse in future, when their mental health condition triggers the “need” for their substances of choice.

PTSD

PTSD is a serious condition that is caused by untreated trauma. People who have been in active service in the military often have PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Other causes include physical, emotional or sexual abuse, surviving violence and many other types of trauma.

People who have PTSD might have vivid and disturbing dreams and flashbacks to the events that caused the trauma, they might feel disconnected from people around them, and they might act out with violence or be depressed, sad or anxious.

There are a lot of symptoms people with bipolar disorder might have, but they are all made worse by substance abuse. Very often, people who have PTSD use alcohol or drugs to try to have unbroken sleep or to keep the flashbacks at bay, but it’s not a long term solution.

Treat the Cause and the Symptom

When substance abuse exists alongside mental health problems, it’s very important to treat both the cause and the symptom. In this case, the mental health condition is usually at least partially the cause of the substance abuse, and the substance abuse itself is the symptom.

When you talk to our admissions and substance abuse treatment specialists, be sure to mention any suspected or diagnosed mental health conditions. It will help us to develop a comprehensive and complete treatment plan that addresses both.

What Is Dual Diagnosis?

Dual Diagnosis is the term used to describe when an individual has been diagnosed with both a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder. This is also referred to as a co occurring disorder.

Often, people struggle with both conditions simultaneously, creating challenges for the individual in terms of managing their well-being.

Who Should Get Dual Diagnosis Treatment?

Dual Diagnosis treatment is essential for anyone who is struggling with a mental health disorder and addiction issues at the same time. This can include people dealing with a mental disorder like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, self harm issues, or any other mental illness as well as drug and alcohol addiction.

Individuals who have attempted traditional mental health treatments without success or those who continue to struggle with a substance abuse problem even after being treated for a mental illness should also consider seeking Dual Diagnosis Treatment. It’s especially important for individuals who have been self-medicating using illicit drugs and other substances due to either condition.

Why Is Treating Mental Health with Substance Abuse Complex?

Treating a mental health disorder and an addiction together can be a complex process because the two often feed into each other. When you have co occurring disorders, drug abuse or alcohol abuse problems can increase a person’s risk of developing or worsening symptoms of certain mental illnesses, while mental illness can also contribute to further drug use in an attempt to self-medicate.

With co occurring disorders present, it becomes harder to focus on just one and the treatment process can feel overwhelming. As a result, it’s important to seek professional help from individuals who understand the complexities of Dual Diagnosis and how to effectively treat both conditions at the same time.

Is It Important for Substance Abuse and Mental Health Conditions to Be Treated Simultaneously?

Yes, it is important to treat co occurring substance use disorders and mental health conditions together to ensure lasting recovery. As mentioned, the two issues often feed into each other which makes it difficult to address either one without taking into account the other.

Having a comprehensive dual diagnosis treatment plan that addresses both issues simultaneously is essential for individuals looking for long-term sobriety, improved mental health, and overall improved quality of life.

How Do You Treat a Person with a Dual Diagnosis?

Treating a person with a Dual Diagnosis involves developing an individualized dual diagnosis treatment plan that takes into account both the mental health disorder and substance use disorder.

Your program might include medication, talk therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, group therapy, and other forms of support like support groups or 12-step programs. Depending on your mental illness and the severity of your addiction, you may have to receive treatment in a residential treatment center or get outpatient treatment.

How Is a Dual Diagnosis Treatment Center Different from Rehab?

Dual Diagnosis treatment centers are specifically designed to provide comprehensive care for individuals struggling with abusing substances and mental disorder.

A dual diagnosis treatment center typically offers addiction treatment that not only focuses on substance use disorder but also addresses the underlying mental health issues that may have led to the addiction.
