Chronic Mental Health Programs
When an individual suffers from a substance use disorder (such as alcohol use disorder or opioid use disorder) and a mental health condition (such as depression or anxiety), this is known as a co-occurring disorder.
Outcomes are significantly improved when both conditions are treated simultaneously.1 A treatment program that focuses on both your substance misuse and chronic mental health issues can offer the best support and guidance for long-term recovery success.
Learning more about your options for drug and alcohol addiction rehab can help you make informed decisions about which treatment program is right for you.
Why Choose A Specialized Chronic Mental Health Program?
Chronic mental health programs focus on individualized treatment of the co-occurring disorders. Many patients have mental health issues such as trouble with emotional highs and lows, history of traumatic loss, interpersonal conflicts, and/or thoughts and behaviors that lead to emotional turmoil.
These programs are recommended for those who are suffering from any of the following co-occurring mental health disorders, among others:
- Anxiety disorder.
- Attention-deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD).
- Bipolar disorder.
- Borderline personality disorder.
- Depression.
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
- Schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
