West Virginia Dual Diagnosis Treatment and Alcoholism
Growing up in mountains of West Virginia I didn’t have access to many dual diagnosis treatment programs or the information to help myself understand what was going on. All I knew was that the more I drank, the calmer I felt. I was always so anxious and irritable. When I drank it calmed me down. Unfortunately over time my drinking progressed and I found that I couldn’t live without it. If I stopped, all the anxiety returned. I had no idea what the term dual diagnosis meant, much less dual diagnosis treatment.
As far as alcoholism, everybody in the area of West Virginia I lived seemed to drink alot. As a matter of fact alcoholism was pretty much accepted as a way of life. The problem was as my alcoholism began to get much worse, it no linger helped me with my anxiety. I was financially bankrupt, my wife divorced me and all the booze in the world didn’t help. After seeing a commercial on tv I headed for a rehab. This happened to be a dual diagnosis rehab.
As soon as I spoke with them I was relieved. At least I understood what dual diagnoisis meant. The dual diagnosis rehab staff treated my anxiety with medication and I completed alcohol detox and went on to alcohol rehab. My life today is a thousand times better today and the dual diagnosis treatment I received in the rehab saved my life.
