Many addicted individuals in Edge Hill 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 Edge Hill also become involved in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate in an attempt to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological disorder. Some addicted individuals aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehab facility is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive treatment for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally healthy in the future.
