Many individuals in Shickley, Nebraska 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 Shickley 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 condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation 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 receive rehabilitation for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
