Many people in Englewood, FL. who find their way to drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Actually, as many as 1/3 of those who struggle with mental health issues in Englewood also become involved in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients typically turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate as a way to alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychological issue. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab program 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 disorders so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally stable in the future.
