Dual-diagnosis treatment treats the diagnosed mental illness and substance misuse simultaneously. Effective dual diagnosis treatment strategies depend upon the nature of the co-occurring condition.
Struggling with an unmanaged mental health condition can lead to self-medicating behaviors and substance misuse. However, some mental health disorders—notably depression and anxiety—can be drug or alcohol-induced.
The causal relationship between substance use and mental illness cannot be definitively identified in most cases. However, people with substance use disorders are more likely to have an underlying mental health condition than the general population. People with mental health conditions are statistically more likely to struggle with addiction.
Substance use disorders and mental health conditions can both be exacerbated by the following factors:
When you’re struggling with addiction and mental health issues, it’s easy to feel stuck or misunderstood. Dual diagnosis care can offer:
Mental health struggles can make addiction recovery more complex, but healing is possible. Common challenges include:
Anxiety disorders involve excessive and persistent feelings of fear and worry that can significantly impact daily life, often leading to avoidance of certain situations or objects.
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulties sustaining attention, controlling impulses, and hyperactivity, often affecting children and adults.
Bipolar disorder is a common mood disorder marked by extreme shifts in mood and energy levels, ranging from episodes of elevated and manic behavior to periods of deep depression and hopelessness.
PTSD is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, such as physical or sexual abuse, the death of a loved one, or time in active military. PTSD can lead to symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, and heightened arousal.
Mood disorders encompass a range of conditions affecting a person’s emotional state, including depression, bipolar disorder, and related conditions that impact mood regulation.
OCD is characterized by intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) aimed at reducing anxiety but often causing distress and disruption in daily life.

In dual diagnosis care, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer to what’s treated first.
Generally, treatment plans should be tailored to the person’s unique situation. In some cases, immediate attention might be given to the more severe or life-threatening condition.
However, in most instances, it’s essential to address both addiction and mental health issues simultaneously or in a closely coordinated manner.
Addressing addiction and mental health issues concurrently is crucial because these conditions often interact and influence each other. Treating one without considering the other might lead to relapse or incomplete recovery.
Integrated treatment aims to provide comprehensive care that considers how addiction and mental health symptoms impact one another and the individual’s overall well-being.
Ultimately, dual diagnosis care aims to provide holistic and individualized treatment that addresses addiction and mental health issues in a coordinated way, maximizing the chances of successful and lasting recovery.
Addiction and mental health disorders often interact and exacerbate each other. Our integrated approach ensures that progress in one area supports improvements in the other, reducing the risk of relapse.
Our addiction specialists work collaboratively to coordinate care therapies, medications, and support services tailored to each patient’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery.
