Many people in Crossville, Alabama 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 suffer with mental health issues in Crossville also take part in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to alleviate the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they make it to a drug treatment center is this sort of psychological condition uncovered. This in itself can help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive treatment for both disorders so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
