Drug and alcohol addictions are complicated enough, let alone when you or your loved one is suffering from a mental illness as well. Dual diagnosis can come in many forms such as depression, anxiety, bipolar, mixed with any type of addiction such as alcohol, drugs, sex, or gambling. Because there are so many possibilities, this complex disorder is difficult, but a successful treatment outcome is not impossible. At Florida Addiction and Recovery Center, our compassionate team of health professionals and counselors can work together with you or your loved ones to make a difference. We believe in the power of positive change, and now is your chance to turn your life around.

Here are a few things to know about dual diagnosis treatment in Fort Lauderdale

PICK REHAB WISELY
Many rehab centers may advertise that they work with those who suffer from dual diagnosis, however many treatment centers are simply not equipped to handle this type of recovery. At Florida Addiction and Recovery, we encourage those with dual diagnosis to come see us, as we specialize in helping the mind, body, and spirit.

ALL IN ONE
Studies have shown that treating dual diagnosis for both addiction and mental recovery at the same time, in the same location, is incredibly helpful. In fact, recovery rates soar higher when treating both issues at the same time. Dealing with one problem seems to be overwhelming enough, so why put you or your loved one through therapy twice? Our caring team will work side-by-side in order to present the best treatment options available.

IT TAKES TIME
One complication to dual diagnosis patients is that the recovery takes time. The time frame of rehab is longer, due to the multiple issues being treated. However, this elongated treatment period allows for a better chance of healing, wholly and completely.

ALL ABOUT COMFORT
At Florida Addiction and Recovery Center, it’s our goal to make each and every patient, dual diagnosis or not, feel comfortable. We know that not every patient responds equally to the treatment options presented, which is why we work to provide an individual experience for any person that comes through our doors.

PROFESSIONALS
Rehab can be daunting, but knowing that you or your loved ones have a compassionate, caring, diligent, and professional staff can put your mind at ease. With interlocking components, this is a teamwork facility, making sure that we talk to each other to ensure our patients are getting the most efficient care possible.
