If you are newly recovering from a dual diagnosis, your road to recovery will be filled with many obstacles and challenges. While you may possess all the coping skills and tools needed for the long haul, you simply cannot recover from co-occurring disorders alone.

While you have to do the heavy lifting of working on your individual program of recovery, long-term recovery from a dual diagnosis only occurs when you have the support of others who are also recovering from a dual diagnosis.

What comes to mind when defining self-care? If you are like many people, self-care means eating a balanced diet, regular exercise, getting restful sleep and practicing good hygiene habits. While those things are important, you cannot neglect self-care for mental health.

If you aren’t taking steps to maintain your daily well-being, your whole self-care program is all for naught—and you make yourself vulnerable to sickness, poor mental health, and even relapse if you are in recovery.
