For residents of Billerica, MA who are living with both a substance use disorder and a co-occurring mental health condition, finding the right treatment can feel overwhelming. The good news is that comprehensive dual diagnosis care is available nearby at Engage Wellness in Acton, MA — just a short drive from Billerica via Route 3 or I-495.
What Is Dual Diagnosis Treatment?
Dual diagnosis treatment — also called co-occurring disorder treatment — addresses both a substance use disorder and a mental health condition simultaneously. Common co-occurring conditions include depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Treating these conditions in an integrated way produces significantly better outcomes than treating each condition separately.
Signs You May Need Dual Diagnosis Care
- You use substances to manage emotional pain, anxiety, or depression
- You have been diagnosed with a mental health condition and also struggle with addiction
- Previous treatment for addiction alone has not produced lasting results
- Your mental health symptoms worsen when you stop using substances
