Many addicted individuals in Prescott who find their way to drug rehab are dual diagnosis clients with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems. Surprisingly, as many as 1/3 of those who suffer with mental health issues in Prescott also take part 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 alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some addicted individuals aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug treatment facility is this sort of issue brought to light. This alone can help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to get rehabilitation for both disorders so that they have a good chance of remaining abstinent and mentally healthy in the future.
