Many people in Mount Joy, Pennsylvania who end up in 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 Mount Joy also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients typically turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate in an attempt to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they make it to a drug rehab program is this sort of psychological condition discovered. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to get treatment for both conditions so that they have a strong chance of remaining clean and sober and mentally healthy in the future.
