Surprisingly, as many as 1/3 of those who struggle with mental health issues in Pasadena Hills, Missouri also take part in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate in an attempt to alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition.
