Many people in Viroqua, WI. 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 Viroqua also take part in substance abuse at some time 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 issue. Some addicts aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab facility is this sort of issue brought to light. This in itself can sometimes 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 psychologically stable in the future.
