Many people in Vega, TX. 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 Vega also take part in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients often turn to drugs or alcohol to self medicate as a way to relieve the symptoms of an underlying psychiatric condition. Some addicted individuals aren't even diagnosed with a disorder, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab facility is this sort of issue uncovered. This alone can sometimes help resolve addiction issues and put the person in a position to get treatment for both disorders so that they have a good chance of remaining clean and sober and psychologically stable in the future.
