Many people in Newport, Ohio 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 Newport also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate in an attempt to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab center is this sort of issue brought to light. This in itself can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get treatment for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally stable in the future.
