What dual diagnosis support means

Dual diagnosis is a term often used when substance use and mental health concerns occur together. These concerns may interact and affect sleep, mood, judgment, relationships, work, or physical well-being. A person may recognize one issue before the other. They can still ask for an assessment that considers the overall situation rather than waiting until every concern is clearly defined.
