In fact, as many as 1/3 of those who suffer with mental health issues in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate in an attempt to relieve 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 program is this sort of psychological condition brought to light.
