Many addicted individuals in Dearborn, MO. 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 struggle with mental health issues in Dearborn also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate as a way to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get treatment for both disorders so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
