Do you accept folks with a dual diagnosis?
Yes, a person who has both an alcohol or drug and an emotional – psychiatric challenge is said to have a dual diagnosis. In order to recover fully, the person needs to address both of these challenges. An integrated dual disorder recovery has been shown to work effectively for folks with both challenges. The good news is that you can achieve recovery. The Last Resort will assist you to identify and develop your own recovery goals, direction plan and develop the skills to manage your mental health symptoms. This process includes learning about steps toward recovery from both illnesses.
The Last Resort will do everything possible to help you build a positive life for yourself without alcohol or drugs. We understand that for most people recovery includes meaningful activities, like a job, friendships with people who do not use alcohol or drugs, a safe place to live, and enjoying leisure activities that are fun and relaxing.
