Many people in Salado, AR. 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 struggle with mental health issues in Salado also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate as a way to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric disorder. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab program is this sort of psychological condition uncovered. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to receive treatment for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining abstinent and psychologically healthy in the future.
