While there are numerous benefits to treatment for individuals battling addiction and their families, two key considerations highlight the significance of treatment. Firstly, recognizing that individuals with addiction frequently suffer from a co-occurring disorder is crucial. Secondly, addiction should be viewed as a brain disease, not a choice. Comprehending these aspects can greatly aid families in empathizing with their loved ones who are struggling. 

 Dual Diagnosis Treatment plan focuses on treating both disorders. This is important since an underlying mental health condition may lead a person to use a substance.   This approach is important to reduce the risk of relapse, which is higher among people who need dual diagnosis treatment and do not receive it.
