Many people in Beaufort, Missouri 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 suffer with mental health issues in Beaufort, Missouri also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric condition. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation facility is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
