Dual diagnosis treatment treats a substance use disorder and a mental health condition, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD or bipolar disorder, at the same time and by the same team. Treating only one usually leaves the other to pull you back.
Residential dual diagnosis programs include psychiatric care and medication management alongside addiction therapy.
What to expect
- Ongoing support after discharge
- Therapies such as CBT, DBT and trauma-focused care
- Clinicians trained in both addiction and mental health
- Private or semi-private rooms in many programs
What Texas rules mean for dual diagnosis treatment
Texas rules call dual diagnosis COPSD, for co-occurring psychiatric and substance use disorders, and require screening, assessment and treatment to stay connected for each client. NIDA's research finds that treating both conditions together generally works best.
What to ask a program
- How soon is the psychiatric evaluation?
- How often will I see a psychiatric provider?
- Who manages medications after discharge?
