Many people in Ben Lomond, AR. 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 Ben Lomond also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate as a way to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric condition. Some addicted individuals aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation center is this sort of issue uncovered. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive treatment for both conditions so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally stable in the future.
