Any type of mental health problem can co-exist with addiction, some of which include depression, anxiety and eating disorders. It’s not uncommon for someone to seek treatment for an addiction and not the other problem, which increases the likelihood of relapse as symptoms of mental or emotional distress can trigger drug-using behaviors.

*Treatment Program Requirements for Treating Co-Occurring Problems

Not all drug treatment programs offer the same types of services so it’s important to find out whether a program is set up to treat co-occurring problems. According to the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs, certain processes must be in place in order for a program to treat someone with a dual diagnosis effectively. Some of these processes include:

• A thorough assessment process
• Regular evaluation intervals during treatment
• Aftercare services
• Properly trained staff
