Many people in Vandergrift who end up in 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 Vandergrift also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric condition. Some addicted individuals aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug rehabilitation program is this sort of issue discovered. This alone 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 abstinent and mentally healthy in the future.
