Dual diagnosis can be a circumstance whereby two independent disorders are present, and most typically describes a co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorder. A dual diagnosis will help someone who might possibly not have been capable of being helped during the past, put an end to drug or alcohol abuse because they can be correctly diagnosed and helped. Their mental health disorder could have been misdiagnosed, undiagnosed, or mistreated which could have triggered and led to their substance abuse problems. Establishing the fact that someone is actually a dual diagnosis client not just helps establish an efficient treatment course for them, but can also help clients better know what triggered their substance abuse and how to prevent it in the future. Handling dual diagnosis can be a more extensive process when compared to a typical drug rehab program, and individuals who have a dual diagnosis might need to participate in a substantial aftercare program which may include appropriate medical support in addition to continued treatment services. Being diagnosed with co-occurring disorders doesn't signify the person will have to be medicated for the rest of their lives either, and actually lots of people with a dual diagnosis experience far better results when treated holistically and when alternative therapy is utilized.
