Living with addiction is hard enough, but when you’re also facing the challenges of Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), life can feel overwhelming. DID, sometimes still referred to as multiple personality disorder, is a mental health condition where a person experiences different identities or personalities that can take control of their thoughts, feelings, and actions. It’s a complex disorder, and it’s not as rare as you might think. Many people struggle with DID without even knowing it, often because it develops as a result of severe trauma, particularly in childhood.
Now, imagine that alongside DID, you’re also battling an addiction – that’s what we call co-occurring disorders. This means you’re dealing with more than one issue at the same time. Having a co-occurring disorder can make getting better feel like an uphill battle, as each issue can make the other worse. It’s like trying to fix a car with two flat tires at the same time; you can’t just focus on one. This is why it is so crucial to have a specialized care that understands the needs of people with both DID and addiction. When you seek the right help, recovery can feel much more attainable and sustainable. We at Asana Recovery understand the difficulties and the complexities that are often associated with these kinds of disorders. Our goal is to create a supportive environment, where you can work towards your recovery with care, understanding, and expertise.
Co-occurring disorders are when someone has both a substance use disorder (like addiction to drugs or alcohol) and another mental health issue (like DID, anxiety, depression, or PTSD). Think of it like this: you might be using drugs or alcohol to cope with the difficult feelings caused by DID, or the stress of addiction could make your DID symptoms worse. It is a constant cycle. Common examples include struggling with an alcohol addiction while also battling depression, or facing an opioid addiction while having anxiety. In cases like DID, the trauma, that caused DID, can also be a trigger for substance use disorder. When you are facing co-occurring disorders, the diagnosis and treatment process can become very difficult. Sometimes, the symptoms of one disorder can hide the symptoms of the other, making it hard for doctors to figure out what’s really going on. For example, some of the personality traits of DID could be misdiagnosed as a mood disorder. This is why we need an integrated treatment approach that looks at all of your needs, not just one specific problem. We need to make sure we are treating all the disorders at the same time, instead of treating them individually. If you have been struggling with both substance use and mental health issues, it is imperative that you find a facility that understands the complexities of treating co-occurring disorders. That is where Asana Recovery comes in. We’re here to help you navigate this complex journey and provide the support and treatment you need to heal from both addiction and mental health challenges. It is not impossible, and many people have gone on to lead healthy and happy lives. To learn more about Dual Diagnosis Treatment, we have more resources on our website.
When it comes to treating DID, it’s important to understand that it’s not like treating other mental health issues. DID is often rooted in deep, personal traumas, so treatment needs to be very specific and sensitive to these issues. Many facilities are not equipped to handle the complexities of DID, which is why we say that specialized care is important. This involves creating a treatment plan that’s designed just for you, taking into account your specific history, needs, and challenges. It’s not a one-size-fits-all approach but rather a tailored experience that helps you address your specific condition. A key part of effective DID treatment is trauma-informed care. This means that every part of the therapy is designed to be very understanding of the trauma that you have experienced. It emphasizes safety and avoids doing anything that could trigger old traumas. For example, therapists work to build trust slowly and are very careful about what they ask you to remember. Specialized care for DID also recognizes the need for a variety of therapeutic approaches, including talk therapy, and potentially, medication management for any co-occurring conditions. It’s about finding the right combination of tools that will help you understand and manage your symptoms. At Asana Recovery, we understand the importance of personalized care plans and we create them to support you in every step of your recovery. Our goal is to help you build a healthier and more fulfilling life. If you are looking for specialized care for your DID, take the first step and Contact Us today.

We get it. Addiction recovery is tough. That’s why our programs are founded and staffed by people in recovery – people who truly understand.
At Asana Recovery, we understand that treating co-occurring disorders like DID and addiction requires a unique approach. Our treatment philosophy is based on the idea that recovery is not a linear path but a journey, and we are there to support you at every step. We use evidence-based therapies, which means that the treatments that we use have been proven to be effective. This includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps you to understand your thought process and change the negative patterns that lead to addiction and triggers your DID symptoms, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for Addiction, which helps you to manage emotions, cope with stress, and improve relationships. These therapies are often used along side Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT). MAT is effective in reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms. This combined approach helps to address both the physical and mental aspects of your addiction.
We also offer a variety of programs to make sure that you get the level of care that you need. Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides flexible treatment that allows you to maintain some of your responsibilities while focusing on your recovery. IOP is a great way to transition out of a more structured program. We also offer Couples Therapy for addiction, because we know that relationships can be affected by addiction and mental health issues, and often families play a huge part in the recovery process. These sessions help you and your loved ones communicate better, set healthy boundaries, and work together through the healing process. We believe that by providing a comprehensive, compassionate, and personalized approach, we can help you achieve lasting recovery and live the life that you deserve. If you are ready to begin your journey, explore our Outpatient Services.
