Many people in Axtell, KS. who find their way to 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 Axtell also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate in an attempt to alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive rehabilitation for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining abstinent and mentally healthy in the future.
