Many people in Dover Plains, New York who end up in drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Actually, as many as 1/3 of those who suffer with mental health issues in Dover Plains, New York also become involved in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate in an attempt to ease 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 rehabilitation facility is this sort of issue uncovered. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get treatment for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
