What does dual diagnosis mean?

Most people in treatment have something else going on as well, and the good programs expect it. A program that tells you to come back once the mental health side is handled has effectively declined to treat you. A program that cannot answer these questions is telling you something useful.

What are the usual program lengths?

The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. The early part of any program is mostly stabilizing, and the work people picture when they think of treatment starts after that. If you can only be away for a fixed period, say so at the start rather than partway through.
