Substance abuse and depression in Texas commonly go hand in hand. All too frequently, people use drugs or alcohol to cope with their depression or preexisting mental illness. Major depression causes many problems in the individual’s life and has an adverse affect on themselves, their friends and family members as well. Turning to drugs and alcohol can temporarily ease the strife that comes with clinical depression, but this temporary escape only makes both problems much worse in the end.

Co-occurring disorders are identified during your treatment with More Than Reahb. Called a dual-diagnosis, our substance abuse treatment professionals identify any other factors when first evaluating our patients. In treating these other disorders such as severe depression, bipolar disorder and other mood affective disorders can help the drug abuse treatment greatly. Recognizing these other factors and treating them accurately can greatly increase the success of curing the substance abuse disorder and vice versa.

More Than Rehab offers a scientific, evidence-based treatment approach to drug and alcohol rehabilitation. We are here to help through every step of the recovery process. It all begins with a call to one of our representatives:

While More Than Rehab focuses our treatment efforts on your individual needs, we also emphasize a ‘social model’ approach to drug and alcohol rehab. This approach focuses on integrating the individual back into a productive member of society, confident and secure in their recovery. We strive to offer services that will help you maintain your sobriety long after you leave our care facility.

Group and family therapy sessions are encouraged to build a network of support for the recovering addict. Alcohol and drug rehabilitation will work best when reinforced by family, friends and those closest to the individual. We strongly suggest a relapse prevention plan to help maintain a sustained, lifetime of sobriety.

Treating clinical depression coupled with an advanced substance abuse treatment will greatly increase the success in curing both disorders.
