Dual Diagnosis
Dual-diagnosis concerns can be a real-life example of the chicken or the egg questions for many. It can be difficult to narrow down which concern was present first; honestly, that’s okay.
The course of treatment would likely be the same either way. The goal of dual-diagnosis treatment programs is to help you learn to cope with and manage all of your mental health concerns in a way that is healthy and realistic for you.
As a New Jersey dual-diagnosis center, the Wellness Recovery Center provides outpatient treatment services for individuals living in the West Windsor area.
Wellness Recovery Center NJ is a New Jersey drug rehab that offers comprehensive dual diagnosis therapy.
Innovative & Immersive Treatment
What Does it Mean to Have a Dual-Diagnosis?
Dual-diagnosis is a phrase used when someone is living with two mental health concerns concurrently. In our case, we are usually talking about mental health concerns that occur in addition to a substance use disorder.
Individuals who are living with a dual diagnosis may know which concern came first, or they may not. Some individuals have a pre-existing mental health concern that may have been relieved with the use of drugs and alcohol. On the other end of the spectrum, we have individuals who developed mental health concerns after they were struggling with an active addiction.
If you have been struggling with your mental health and your use of drugs and alcohol, you may benefit from care at a dual-diagnosis treatment center in New Jersey. Wellness Recovery Center offers personalized treatment designed to support all your mental health needs.

Dual Diagnosis Impacts
How a Dual Diagnosis Can Impact Your Health and Wellness
Individuals who are living with a dual diagnosis are likely to experience more symptoms than those who are not. As an example, someone who is struggling with depression would have their depressive symptoms as well as their addiction causing distress and impairment in their functioning. Depending on the mental health concern, individuals with co-occurring disorders may find themselves experiencing more hopelessness and suicidal concerns.
It is also important to be mindful of how co-occurring mental health concerns impact each other. You may find that their triggers are intertwined or that the symptoms of one act as a trigger for the other. When this occurs, recovery can feel almost impossible if you are doing it on your own.
If you are living with a dual diagnosis, you may struggle with:
- Isolation
- Keeping focus and maintaining attention
- Changes in your behavior
- Mood changes
- Increased engagement in risky behaviors
Located in West Windsor, you will find our New Jersey dual-diagnosis center, which is staffed with adept and experienced mental health professionals.

What to look for in treatment
What is the Best Treatment Approach for Individuals Living with a Dual-Diagnosis?
The best course of action for those who are living with a dual diagnosis is to receive treatment for both concerns at the same time. As mentioned above, co-occurring disorders are often connected in one or many ways. When you receive treatment for both concurrently, you will learn new skills and strategies for managing symptoms of both your addiction and your other mental health concerns.
The form of treatment that you need will be dependent on your mental health concerns, the severity of your symptoms, and your mental health history. Specialized treatment options and medication management are often available in both inpatient and outpatient treatment programs.
Wellness Recovery Center is the ideal New Jersey dual-diagnosis center because of its location, treatment services, and exemplary staff. Once your treatment journey begins, you will feel like you are progressing towards your recovery goals. Call (811)861-3449 today to speak with a Wellness Recovery Center representative!

If you have been struggling with drugs or alcohol, you may have found yourself isolating yourself and distancing yourself from your friends and family.

When you add another mental health concern into the picture, your experience has likely intensified because of other mental health concerns.
