Many people in Rio Oso, California 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 suffer with mental health issues in Rio Oso also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients typically turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate in an attempt to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehabilitation center is this sort of psychological condition discovered. This alone can help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to receive treatment for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally healthy in the future.
