What is Dual Diagnosis?
A dual diagnosis refers to cases where a patient has a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder. This is also known as co-occurring disorders. These conditions often make recovery more challenging. Your substance abuse disorder may impact your mental health disorder and vice versa.
That is why it is essential to understand the relationship between the disorders for effective treatment.
How Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders Co-Occur
Many people with mental health disorders turn to substances as a way to cope with their symptoms. This leads to substance use disorders. Similarly, substance use can make existing mental health conditions worse. That is why it is essential to address both at the same time. Treating both gives our clients the best chance at long-term recovery.

How Often Does a Dual Diagnosis Occur?
Dual diagnosis is more common than you might think. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), about 9.2 million adults in the US have a co-occurring disorder. Substance abuse affects about 40.3 million people in the United States.
Impact of a Dual Diagnosis on Your Recovery Journey
A dual diagnosis can significantly impact your recovery journey. It may lead to more persistent symptoms, increased risk of relapse, and longer hospitalizations. However, with the proper treatment, recovery is possible. Purpose Healing is dedicated to helping you break free from the cycle of dual diagnosis and move toward a healthier, happier life.
Common Dual Diagnoses
When it comes to dual diagnoses, several combinations are more common. Understanding these common dual diagnoses is crucial to providing effective treatment. Keep reading to learn more about some of the most common co-occurring disorders.
Depression
If you are depressed, you may have persistent sadness and hopelessness. You may also experience a loss of interest or pleasure in activities. When combined with substance use, individuals may turn to drugs or alcohol as a way to self-medicate. This can help temporarily alleviate their emotional pain. However, it can also lead to a cycle of dependence and worsening depressive symptoms.
Anxiety
Anxiety disorders often occur with substance use disorders. These disorders can include social anxiety, generalized anxiety, and panic disorders. Individuals with anxiety may use substances to cope. This can result in addiction and worsening of their anxiety symptoms.
Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder and using substances often involves extreme mood swings, from manic highs to depressive lows. Individuals may use substances to self-medicate during depressive episodes or intensify manic episodes.
Borderline Personality Disorder
Patients with BPA may experience intense mood swings, unstable relationships, and a fear of abandonment. They may engage in risky behaviors to ease their emotional distress. This means they are often at a higher risk of substance abuse.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
PTSD results from exposure to traumatic events. Many people with PTSD turn to substances to numb the emotional pain or to cope with disturbing flashbacks and nightmares. Some studies show that up to 46% of patients diagnosed with PTSD also have substance abuse disorders.
ADHD
People with ADHD may have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. They can also have difficulty managing their emotions. People with ADHD may be two to three times more susceptible to developing substance use disorders. They often use stimulants, like amphetamines or other substances, to self-regulate their symptoms.
Our Dual Diagnosis Arizona Services: Overcoming the Challenges of Co-occurring Disorders
There are many challenges when it comes to treating dual-diagnosis cases. This can be due to the complexity of the underlying mental health condition or lack of access to specialized care. Learn more about these challenges.
Complex Diagnosis and Assessment
Diagnosing both mental health and substance use disorders can be intricate. Symptoms may overlap or mask each other, making it difficult to determine the primary issue. Accurate assessment is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan.
Relapse Risk
Individuals with dual diagnoses have a higher risk of relapse. Treating one condition while ignoring the other can lead to relapse. Untreated mental health issues may drive substance use or vice versa. Mental health disorders are often chronic and persistent. Effective treatment may require ongoing support.
Limited Treatment Options
Not all treatment centers can handle co-occurring disorders. This can limit access to appropriate care, leading to inadequate treatment in order to effectively treat dual diagnoses, where both must be treated. A lack of integrated care can lead to fragmented treatment and reduced effectiveness.
Choosing Medication That Doesn’t Interfere With Sobriety
When treating dual diagnoses, medication management also becomes complex. Some psychiatric medications may interact negatively with substances of abuse. Additionally, some mental health medications can increase the risk of relapse.
