Many addicted individuals in Bellefontaine, OH. who end up in drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Actually, as many as 1/3 of those who struggle with mental health issues in Bellefontaine also take part in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate in an attempt to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric issue. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehab facility is this sort of psychological condition uncovered. This in itself can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to receive rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally stable in the future.
