Many people in Owingsville, Kentucky who find their way to drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Actually, as many as 1/3 of those who struggle with mental health issues in Owingsville also become involved in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients typically turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to alleviate 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 treatment program is this sort of issue uncovered. This alone 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 clean and sober and mentally stable in the future.
