Many people in Pleasant Hill who end up in 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 Pleasant Hill 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 psychiatric issue. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehabilitation center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive treatment for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining abstinent and mentally healthy in the future.
