Many individuals in Lost Springs, Kansas who find their way to drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Surprisingly, as many as 1/3 of those who struggle with mental health issues in Lost Springs 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 ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation center is this sort of psychological condition uncovered. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to receive rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally stable in the future.
