People with so-called co-occurring disorders, sometimes called dual diagnosis patients, suffer from both substance use disorder and mental illness. This condition comes in as many forms as there are addictions and mental health conditions. Millions of Americans each year struggle with co-occurring disorders and can benefit from dual-diagnosis treatment programs. At Colorado Medication Assisted Recovery, our expert team will help you overcome both your substance use disorder and mental health condition with a treatment track that treats co-occurring disorders so you can become one of our many patients to achieve sustained addiction recovery. For more information about our mental health and addiction treatment center in Colorado or our medication-assisted approach to addiction treatment, contact Colorado Medication Assisted Recovery today at 833.448.0127.
Our Thornton, CO, dual diagnosis treatment center focuses on treating the underlying causes of your substance abuse. In order to successfully treat a drug addiction, it is necessary to also treat any co-occurring mental health condition.
In some cases, the mental health condition may pre-date your addiction. Maybe you began using drugs to combat the symptoms of depression or anxiety. Sadly, that drug use quickly spiraled into addiction. In other cases, your drug use may have caused a mental health disorder. Specific drugs can change the chemistry of the brain, which disrupts the routine functions of the neurotransmitters such as dopamine. This reaction sometimes results in mental health conditions.
While you may think that using substances helps to control the symptoms of a mental health condition, in reality, it’s doing the opposite. Substance abuse leads to decreased serotonin levels, which, in turn, can lead to worsening depression.
The signs that you need a dual diagnosis treatment program may not initially be evident. However, some routine signals can indicate that you or a loved one needs dual diagnosis treatment. These symptoms include:
None of these symptoms, taken by themselves, are indications of mental illness and addiction. However, if you see multiple symptoms over the course of several weeks or months, the time to act is now. If you don’t act, the mental health condition and substance use disorder could worsen.
Some of our dual diagnosis treatment options include:
Bipolar 1
Bipolar 2
Cyclothymic disorder
Seasonal affective disorder
Stabilized psychotic disorder
Obsessive-compulsive personality disorders
Narcissistic personality disorder
Avoidant personality disorder
Dependent personality disorder
While this is not a comprehensive list, if you suffer from a disorder or other mental health concerns not listed here, call us at 833.448.0127 or contact us online. We more than likely treat the condition that you’re struggling with in addition to addiction.
At Colorado Medication Assisted Recovery, we know the consequences of mental illness and addiction. Therefore, we are proud to offer a dual diagnosis treatment program for our patients. Dual diagnosis treatment is essential for your long-term recovery. When getting treatment for addiction, it is essential to be equipped with the tools to manage the symptoms of mental health conditions. Otherwise, you may quickly turn back to substances to keep the symptoms under control. Conversely, if you only get treatment for the mental health condition, your drug use can cause your mental health condition to worsen.
With our treatment program for co-occurring disorders, we provide patients the tools they need to manage the symptoms of their mental health condition. Through a wide range of holistic and evidence-based therapies, our patients are able to manage both their addiction and mental health conditions.
