When Drug Abuse Gets Complex Because of Mental Health Disorders

Having one of many mental health disorders along with a drug abuse problem makes dealing with either one that much more complicated.  It is hard enough when the individual with the disease has to deal with alcohol or drug abuse by itself.  Add to that anxiety, depression or a bi-polar disorder and the only thing that can truly help is a dual diagnosis treatment.  Getting traditional drug rehabilitation just will not suffice when mental health disorders are now part of the prognosis.  Not only does the person have to overcome one of the strongest physical dependencies that exists, but symptoms of a mental illness are also raging.  The good news is that with the correct drug rehabilitation and dual diagnosis treatment, the individual can overcome both of these situations and gain control over their life.

Evidence-Based Treatment for Alcohol and Drug Abuse

Research in the past decade has shown that substance abuse and substance dependence are treatable. The field has witnessed the introduction of evidence-based psychological and specific pharmacological treatments. Unfortunately, many of the empirical supported therapies for addictions are still not widely applied by practitioners. The third volume in the Practical Clinical Guidebooks Series (PCG), Evidence-Based Treatment in Substance Abuse and Dependence would encompass the developments in the field over the last decade, blending theory, techniques and clinical flexibility. The book will provide case illustrations on assessment as well as therapy, and will be suitable for practitioners and students training in clinical and counseling psychology, psychiatry, social work and related fields. The book would define the characteristics, classification, and prevalence of substance use disorders, and provide the clinician with practical guidelines applicable across a variety of treatment settings and patient groups. Drawing on the recent research in the field, the authors will provide the practicing clinician and student with an up-to-date understanding of the epidemiology, etiology, course and prognosis of substance abuse disorders that would be relevant to clinical practice. In addition to describing phenomenology and etiology, the book provides a comprehensive guide to the assessment and treatment of DSM-IV-TR substance abuse disorders (SUDs), including abuse and dependence of alcohol, stimulants, opiates, hallucinogens, cannabis/marijuana, sedative, and party drugs. Illustrative case histories will help the reader to understand the phenomenology and assessment of SUDs. Lastly, thepresentation of empirically-based therapeutic approaches will help the clinician to decide with treatment will match his/her patient’s needs.
