Anyone Know of Good & Effective Dual Diagnosis Rehab Centers?

Question by Anthony B: Anyone know of good & effective dual diagnosis rehab centers?
I’ve decided to get myself some help and need advice on treatment centers. I need a place that specializes in mental-illness(more specifically, bipolar) along with drug and alcohol addiction. I haven’t the slightest clue how to locate a quality program and need some help. If anyone knows of any or has gone through a similar situation, please share.

Answer by Knowledge
You are very wise to look for a drug and alcohol rehab center that addresses all mental health issues as well. I know for certain that Journey Healing Centers has a well recognized dual diagnosis program that is offered as part of their addiction rehabilitation. They also have a confidential helpline to answer any questions you may have. Here is their website:
