Many addicted individuals in Jasper who end up in 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 Jasper also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug rehab center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This in itself can 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 psychologically healthy in the future.
