Many addicted individuals in Christiansburg, OH. 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 Christiansburg also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation program is this sort of issue brought to light. 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 psychologically stable in the future.
