Many individuals in Parsons, West Virginia 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 struggle with mental health issues in Parsons, West Virginia also become involved in substance abuse at some time in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients frequently turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate as a way to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological issue. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug treatment center is this sort of psychological condition brought to light. This in itself can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the individual in a position to receive treatment for both conditions so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically healthy in the future.
