Many people in Douglassville, TX. who find their way to 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 Douglassville, TX. 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 in an attempt to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychological issue. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug treatment facility is this sort of issue brought to light. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to receive rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
