Depression, anxiety and trauma often show up alongside substance use, and SAMHSA data show higher rates of mental illness among lesbian, gay and bisexual adults. Treating both at once usually works better than treating them separately.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Where is the nearest LGBTQ dual diagnosis program to Bellingham, WA?
The nearest listed program is Clarity Mental Health and Recovery, about under 1 mile from Bellingham. Programs on this page treat co-occurring serious mental illness, offer psychiatric medication and report an LGBTQ program or group.
What is dual diagnosis?
It means having a substance use disorder and a mental health condition, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD or bipolar disorder, at the same time.
Will my information stay private?
Federal rules (42 CFR Part 2) give substance use treatment records extra confidentiality protections beyond standard health privacy law. Ask any program how it handles your records and who can see them.
Why treat both at once?
Each condition can make the other worse. Integrated treatment by one team tends to work better than treating them separately.
