Many people in Valmeyer, Illinois 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 Valmeyer, Illinois 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 psychological issue. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehab center is this sort of issue uncovered. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to receive treatment for both disorders so that they have a good chance of remaining abstinent and mentally stable in the future.
