Many individuals in Perry, AR. 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 Perry, Arkansas 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 ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug treatment center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This in itself can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get treatment for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
