Persons in San Diego, California with HIV/AIDS might find that they are in need of substance abuse rehab. It is important that the drug rehab center of choice is one which recognizes the challenges involved in helping clients stricken with these diseases so that having HIV/AIDS is not a barrier to their rehab. As soon as any physical obstacles have been conquered, as is often the case with addicted persons who have not properly cared for their health, persons with HIV/AIDS in treatment will address all of the mental and emotional problems concerning their drug addiction. The end result will be someone who can properly care for themselves both body and mind, and perhaps add quite a few years to their lives.
