Mental well-being can be affected by four main factors out of the patient's control. They are not a choice. These are:
Identifying these factors can lead to the correct diagnosis. At our treatment facility, patients access mental health services, including clinical psychologists and other mental health professionals who work in multidisciplinary teams to formulate holistic treatment plans for patients experiencing co-occurring disorders.
Mental health disorders and addictive substances can bring out the worst in each other. These co-occurring disorders can lead to serious side effects for the patient, which, fortunately, can be treated. These include:
Withdrawal from drugs and alcohol can present a crisis point for addicts suffering from mental health disorders or severe mental illness. This is because withdrawal puts a tremendous strain on the body but also on the mind as it attempts to reset chemical imbalances after the removal of substances.

The Hader Clinic’s integrated approach to mental health care helps dual diagnosis patients manage their first 28-Day Withdrawal & Detox Program. Our team starts by addressing their withdrawal holistically in a safe residential care environment.

This intensive treatment allows dual diagnosis patients to move onto the next stage of addiction with the best chance of ongoing success when they return to the general population.

The Hadar Clinic helps patients understand addiction and how it affects their mental well-being. We provide the care and support they need along with specialised clinical services that help to ensure they have the best possible chance of recovery.
Practising self care is extremely important for looking after mental health and wellbeing. Just as the body needs exercise and healthy food, the mind needs attention to keep it running healthily.
Here are some day to day things you can do to practice good mental health care and keep your well-being in check:
Comorbid mental health and substance use issues have nothing to do with intelligence. Instead, your loved one’s mental health disorder likely stems from environmental, genetic, and other factors. Addiction doesn't discriminate by age, sex, income, or other factors.

At Hader Clinic, we help the patient, their friends, and family see mental health disorders and addiction as an affliction. And, like many illnesses, these issues can be treated.
