Learn About Anxiety Disorder Treatment

Treatment for co-occurring anxiety disorders at Bradford Recovery Center in Millerton, PA

Some people struggle with more than just the symptoms of addiction; they might also be battling symptoms of a mental illness. When a person is living with both a substance use disorder and a mental illness, this is referred to as a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder. A person can experience the effects of having both a substance use disorder and a mental illness in many different ways. Someone might abuse drugs or alcohol to help them manage the symptoms of a mental illness, leading them to develop an addiction. Other people might start experiencing the symptoms of a mental illness because they are abusing drugs or alcohol. When a person is struggling with addiction and a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both conditions to obtain long-lasting recovery.

Some of the many substance use disorders a person might struggle with include opioid addiction, stimulant addiction, alcohol addiction, and benzodiazepine addiction. Anxiety disorders are types of mental illnesses that commonly co-occur with addiction and include a range of challenges, such as generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social anxiety disorder. Feeling worried or anxious is a normal part of everyday life, but people who suffer from an anxiety disorder typically experience a level of worry and stress that is so overwhelming that it can interfere with their ability to function on a daily basis.

When someone is suffering from an anxiety disorder, they might find it difficult to control how worried they feel about certain situations or events. They may have a hard time concentrating at work or on important tasks, and they might feel irritable, tense, and tired all the time. They might also have trouble falling or staying asleep. Some people who struggle with an anxiety disorder might also experience panic attacks, which typically involve sudden feelings of intense fear, along with a pounding heart, sweating, trembling, shortness of breath, and a feeling of being out of control.

The expert staff at Bradford Recovery Center in Millerton, Pennsylvania, helps adults age 18 and older who have a primary addiction diagnosis to heal from the damage that a substance use disorder can inflict on their life. We also treat adults who are experiencing symptoms of co-occurring anxiety disorders. When you choose to heal at our residential treatment center, you benefit from the latest evidence-based treatments and therapeutic interventions in an environment dedicated to confidentiality and respect.

Why Consider Treatment at Bradford

Why consider getting co-occurring anxiety disorder treatment at Bradford Recovery Center in Millerton, PA

The longer you wait to seek treatment for addiction and a co-occurring anxiety disorder, the greater the possibility that your life will be significantly disrupted. Depending on the anxiety disorder a person is struggling with, they may find it challenging to accomplish everyday tasks, such as cleaning the house, doing the laundry, or performing at work. When a person is suffering from an anxiety disorder, their mind might either race or simply go blank, and they may feel tense and exhausted almost all the time.

Others who are experiencing the symptoms of an untreated anxiety disorder might not be able to attend social functions or continue going to work. This can damage their relationships and hurt their ability to maintain long-term employment. Many people who suffer from an untreated anxiety disorder avoid the situation or object that makes them feel anxious, which can limit their life experiences or job prospects. Others become so overwhelmed by the symptoms of the anxiety disorder they are struggling with that they experience suicidal ideation or attempt suicide.
