Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Whittemore

Many treatment programs in Whittemore, Iowa address individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders. A person who struggles with a psychological disorder(s) and substance abuse needs to work through both issues at the same time. Failing to address the client's mental disorder(s) during their drug rehabilitation will leave them vulnerable to relapse once they leave treatment. Troubles with mood disorders, anxiety disorders and other psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia, personality disorders, etc.) will surface once back in their day to day life. If the client does not have a grip on how to control their mental disorder they will probably fall back into their old ways of abusing drugs or alcohol as a means of coping and self-medicating.
