Treating Co-Occurring Disorders

NEARLY ONE-THIRD OF INDIVIDUALS WITH MENTAL DISORDERS ALSO LIVE WITH A COEXISTING ADDICTION.

Similarly, almost half of individuals with a severe mental illness live with addiction or substance use problems.

These co-occurring disorders require integrated treatment methodologies, often referred to as dual diagnosis treatment. Incomplete treatment, meaning addressing only one of the issues, often leaves you with underlying and ongoing issues. These conditions tend to worsen if left untreated..

What Are Co-Occurring Disorders?

CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS ARE WHEN YOU HAVE TWO OR MORE MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS AT THE SAME TIME. FOR INSTANCE, HAVING A SUBSTANCE ADDICTION, AND DEPRESSION WOULD BE CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS THAT REQUIRE DUAL DIAGNOSIS TREATMENT.
Some examples of common co-occurring disorders include:

Often you may not realize there are complicated and complex underlying issues causing your addiction. You may seek treatment for your addiction only to discover that you also have a condition like depression or anxiety. For the best results, it is important to treat both.

What Is Dual Diagnosis Treatment?

When undergoing dual diagnosis treatment, you address the more serious condition first. Generally, this means that a client will detox from any alcohol or drugs in their system, then enter treatment. At Integrative Life Center, we take over once detox is complete.

Once in treatment, you’ll participate in initial assessments to help us determine the best course of action for you. Residential care is the most recommended treatment for someone with a dual diagnosis. Untangling the roots of your illnesses and implementing a dual diagnosis treatment plan requires a high level of expertise and long-term care.
