Many addicted individuals in Brandon, MN. who end up in drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Surprisingly, as many as 1/3 of those who suffer with mental health issues in Brandon 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 as a way to alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug treatment facility is this sort of psychological condition uncovered. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to get treatment for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining abstinent and psychologically stable in the future.
