Many people in Whiteville, Tennessee 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 Whiteville also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate in an attempt to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. 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 psychological condition brought to light. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get rehabilitation for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
