Many addicted individuals in Farmington, MI. who find their way to drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. In fact, as many as 1/3 of those who suffer with mental health issues in Farmington 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 in an attempt to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric issue. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab facility is this sort of psychological condition discovered. This in itself can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to get treatment for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
