Co-Occuring Disorders

There are many programs available for an individual seeking drug addiction treatment, and finding the right center is essential for a successful recovery. If you are suffering from more multiple problems such as a drug addition and an eating disorder, or depression, you should find a treatment center that specializes in dual diagnosis. Dual diagnosis treatment addresses co-occurring disorders or illnesses. Other treatment centers may not properly diagnose an individual with co-occurring disorders because the symptoms from both illnesses overlap. Therefore it is important that this individual enter a center that has experience in dual diagnosis treatment and offers a wide range of programs aside from just drug detox, and addiction treatment.
