Co-Occurring Disorders Treatment for Mental Health
At Rebuilding Mental Health in Massachusetts, you’ll receive treatment for co-occurring disorders that addresses all aspects of your well-being.
What Are Comorbid Disorders in Easton, MA?
Co-occurring mental health conditions happen when you have two or more mental health disorders at once. In Massachusetts, more treatment centers now focus on whole-person care. Treating all your conditions together helps you get better results and build lasting stability.
Why Do Co-Occurring Disorders Develop?
- Shared Biology: Many conditions involve similar brain chemistry and genes.
- Symptom Overlap: One condition can trigger another, such as poor sleep leading to increased anxiety.
- Missed Diagnoses: Sometimes, symptoms are blamed on the first condition, missing a second one.
- Life Stress: Trauma or ongoing stress can trigger multiple conditions at once.
Dual Diagnosis vs. Co-Occurring Disorders: How They Differ
The terms are sometimes used interchangeably. But ‘dual diagnosis’ usually means having both a mental health condition and a substance use disorder. Co-occurring disorders refer to having two or more mental health conditions at the same time.

FAQs
Can multiple mental health conditions be treated at the same time?

Is medication necessary?
Not always. But medication can stabilize symptoms across multiple conditions. Your psychiatrist will talk with you about whether it’s the right fit for you.
Can I continue working during treatment?
Yes. Half-day and virtual programs let you balance treatment with work and other responsibilities.
What's the most common combination of conditions?
Most often, anxiety and depression occur together. Other common combinations include ADHD with anxiety and depression with PTSD.
