Many people in Escanaba, MI. 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 Escanaba, Michigan also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients typically turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric 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 uncovered. This in itself can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get rehabilitation for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining abstinent and psychologically stable in the future.
