Many people in Fenton 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 struggle with mental health issues in Fenton, Missouri also take part in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug treatment center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to get rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining abstinent and mentally healthy in the future.
