Many individuals in Litchfield 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 Litchfield also become involved in substance abuse at some time 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 psychiatric condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug treatment facility is this sort of psychological condition discovered. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a good chance of remaining abstinent and mentally healthy in the future.
