Do you drink because of depression or past trauma? Perhaps you feel depressed and anxious all of the time, even though you are using substances. Dual diagnosis in drug rehab is one of the most important tools you have in getting sober and gaining mental health stability. Many men and women who have an addiction also have a mental health disorder that requires them to seek help. At Crestview Recovery, we can help you manage both your addiction and any mental health issues that you are suffering from.
What Is Dual Diagnosis?
Many people struggle with mental health disorders. This includes conditions such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Some people with these disorders use drugs or alcohol to manage their symptoms. Other people have started to experience mental health disorders only after they started using drugs and alcohol.
In either situation, there is a dual problem here. Dual diagnosis and holistic drug rehab therapy are necessary. This is a specific treatment plan addressing both the mental health disorders present as well as the drug or alcohol addiction. If just one of these areas is managed and not the other, it is very common for a person to struggle with long-term health and wellbeing. They are less likely to remain sober or live the life they desire. Yet, treatment can help.
How Does Treatment Work?
With a dual diagnosis in drug rehab, several key things begin to happen. First, at Crestview Recovery, you will receive a full evaluation to determine what all of your needs are. From there, we will create a customized treatment plan to address those needs. If we find signs of mental health disorders, we will encourage you to obtain dual diagnosis treatment. At Crestview Recovery, we offer:
- Depression treatment
- Anxiety treatment
- Treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Bipolar disorder treatment
- Mood disorder treatment
Your treatment for mental health will help you to gain stability and control over the symptoms you have. This may be done through medications and counseling. It is a process that will continue for a long time as you learn to manage your illness.
Our Treatment Programs
In addition to this, your treatment also involves managing your addiction. We do this through a series of programs. We offer an outpatient drug rehab center, intensive outpatient programs (IOP), and partial hospitalization treatment (PHP). Within these programs, we provide you with various therapies to help you learn to manage your addiction. This may include:

Recovery is possible when you receive this type of comprehensive care. Our care works for you because it is individualized for you.
