Dual Diagnosis Drug Treatment
Sometimes, the drug addiction isn’t the only problem. Many individuals also are suffering from other diagnosed mood and psychiatric conditions. Disorders like depression or anxiety can have a heavy hand in developing an addiction. People oftentimes will turn to drugs or to alcohol to self medicate away the problems caused by the disorder. Cirque Lodge is a dual diagnosis drug rehab facility. During a drug treatment stay, therapies are provided to treat the addiction and disorder simultaneously.
The drug treatment program is individualized to provide the best results. For individuals who are struggling with a disorder, the program is designed specifically to help them with both issues. Ample amounts of personal, one-on-one therapy is provided from licensed professionals. A psychiatric evaluation is also part of the admission process. Individuals can be affected by a mood disorder, and not be aware. Evaluations throughout drug treatment are available to diagnose such conditions.
Addiction and psychiatric conditions are very similar. They are problems that don’t go away. They require daily management, and some days are better than others. Treatment for both conditions introduces coping strategies. These are elements that can be utilized in times of struggle. At Cirque Lodge, our drug rehab facility uses a unique balance of activities and programs to introduce a bevy of coping strategies. It used to be that people who suffered from co-occurring conditions required two separate facilities to receive appropriate care. Now with dual diagnosis, drug treatment and psychiatric care is available in one facility.
