Understanding Depression

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a serious mental health condition that can significantly affect a person’s life. At Camelback Recovery, we treat various forms of clinical depression, including major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder (dysthymia), and treatment-resistant depression. Understanding the symptoms, signs, and risk factors of depression is crucial in providing comprehensive care and support.

The Risk for Co-Occurring Substance Abuse and Depression

At Camelback Recovery, we understand that depression and substance abuse often go hand-in-hand, creating a complex and challenging situation for those affected. Individuals struggling with depression may turn to drugs or alcohol as a way to cope with their emotional pain, while substance abuse can exacerbate symptoms of depression, creating a vicious cycle.

Co-occurring disorders, also known as dual diagnosis, occur when an individual experiences both a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder simultaneously. This combination can significantly hinder the recovery process if not properly addressed. Common risk factors for co-occurring substance abuse and depression include:

• Self-Medication: Using substances to temporarily alleviate feelings of sadness, anxiety, or hopelessness.
• Increased Tolerance: Over time, the need for larger amounts of the substance to achieve the same effect can lead to dependence.
• Worsening Symptoms: Substance abuse can intensify depressive symptoms, leading to a deeper spiral into both conditions.
• Impaired Judgment: Depression and substance abuse can impair decision-making, increasing risky behaviors and the likelihood of addiction.

Our Dual Diagnosis Treatment Program to Treat Depression and Substance Abuse

Assessment and Diagnosis

At Camelback Recovery, we start with a comprehensive assessment to diagnose depression, addiction, and any other co-occurring disorders. This thorough evaluation allows us to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses the specific needs of each patient.

Integrated Treatment Approach

Our integrated treatment approach combines mental health care with addiction treatment. We utilize a variety of therapy methods, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) to address trauma and anxiety. Medication management is also an essential part of our program for those dealing with treatment-resistant depression or other clinical depression symptoms.

Depression Treatment Services Offered

Inpatient Treatment

Our inpatient treatment programs for mental health, addiction, and dual diagnosis provide a structured environment with 24-hour support and supervision. This level of care is ideal for individuals with severe cases of depression and addiction. Inpatient treatment removes patients from harmful influences and provides a safe space to focus on recovery.

Outpatient Treatment

For those who require flexibility, our outpatient treatment options for mental health, substance abuse, and co-occurring disorders include an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP). These programs allow patients to maintain daily responsibilities while receiving intensive treatment for depression and substance abuse.

Detox Services

Our ambulatory detox services help patients safely rid their bodies of harmful substances if they are addicted to drugs or alcohol. This process is critical for managing withdrawal symptoms and setting the foundation for successful treatment.

We offer a range of therapies and specialized programs to address the unique needs of our patients. These include individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and innovative treatments such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy.
