Schizoaffective disorder is a chronic mental illness marked by the fact that those with the condition display symptoms from different mood and psychotic disorders. Because the condition presents symptoms of other common mental disorders, it’s often difficult for mental health professionals to come to a proper diagnosis. Viewpoint Dual Recovery Center understands the complexity of treating schizoaffective disorder, which allows them to address the full scope of the illness in their clients.
People with schizoaffective disorder may show signs of hallucinations, delusions, and other symptoms, including:
Without treatment, people who have mental illnesses may struggle with the following issues:
Diagnosing schizoaffective disorder in a person involves pushing through to make sure that other mental illnesses are not the primary cause of the symptoms on display. Mental health professionals generally rely on the following guidelines in diagnosing the mental disorder.
It’s important to note that until you get the proper diagnosis, treatment cannot begin. Sadly, many people who struggle with schizoaffective disorder don’t want to receive treatment. They may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these symptoms. In such cases, dual diagnosis treatment, such as the ones found at Viewpoint Dual Recovery Center, is your best option.
Viewpoint Dual Recovery Center varies its treatment of schizoaffective disorder depending on the severity of the symptoms manifesting from the illness. Many of our clients respond well to a combination of various therapies, medication, and help with life skills. Some benefit by admitting themselves for inpatient hospitalization. We also offer men’s and women’s treatment programs. These programs allow our patients to focus entirely on their recovery.
The medications used for treating schizoaffective disorder include antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, and depressants. Our team of professionals provides constant monitoring to ensure clients receive the best care. We make adjustments as needed to help clients achieve the best outcome from their treatment plan.
Some clients come to our facility with a dual diagnosis. They may be dealing with a drug or alcohol addiction that also needs care. The staff at Viewpoint Dual Recovery Center gives each client a thorough evaluation to ensure we capture all their needs and map out a practical course of treatment.
We make the entire process work through alliances with therapists, psychiatrists, case managers, and clinical staff. That allows us to help clients at different stages of their illness and craft unique treatment plans to suit their needs.
You don’t have to feel trapped by your diagnosis. At Viewpoint Dual Recovery Center, we strive to help people just like you overcome their mental health diagnosis. We offer a variety of programs offered, including:
