Many people in Whitharral, Texas 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 suffer with mental health issues in Whitharral, Texas also become involved in substance abuse at some point in their lives. These dual diagnosis clients typically turn to alcohol or drugs to self medicate as a way to ease the symptoms of an underlying psychological condition. Some treatment clients aren't even diagnosed with a psychological condition, and only when they begin to receive treatment at a drug rehab center is this sort of psychological condition uncovered. This in itself 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 abstinent and psychologically stable in the future.
