Elkport, IA. - Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse DisordersMany rehabilitation programs in Elkport, Iowa address people with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders. A person who struggles with a mental disorder(s) and substance abuse needs to work through both issues simultaneously. Failing to handle the client's psychological disorder(s) during their drug rehabilitation will leave them vulnerable to relapse once they leave treatment. Problems with mood disorders, anxiety disorders and other psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia, personality disorders, etc.) will come up once back in their day to day life. If the client does not have a handle on how to manage their mental disorder they will most likely fall back into their old ways of abusing drugs or alcohol as a means of coping and self-medicating.
