Mental Health & Substance Abuse

Effective Treatment for Substance Abuse & Mental Health Disorders

The Different Types of Mental Health Disorders

Depression

16.2 million adults suffer from major depression in a given year. Left untreated, depression can lead to severe health consequences.

PTSD

People who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder are more likely to attempt suicide. PTSD often leads to a substance abuse disorder, as well.

Co-Occurring Disorders

2.3 million Americans suffer from both mental illness and a substance use disorder. Find out how co-occurring diseases work and how they are treated.

Bipolar & Substance Abuse

Learn about how bipolar and addiction work together and how this creates challenges in the recovery process.

How Treatment can Help With Co-Occurring Disorders

Addiction is commonly the result of another mental illness. Doctors diagnose their patients with co-occurring disorders when they are addicted to substances while concurrently suffering from one or more additional mental illnesses. The symptoms of co-occurring disorders intensify each other, making recovery intricate.

Research shows that treating co-occurring disorders simultaneously is not only effective but also ideal. If you need a strong and evidence-based treatment center for co-occurring disorders, we can help you. Call us today to be connected immediately with a specialist.

In those types of centers, treatment methods integrate therapies that address each condition. Treating all mental health disorders at the same time promotes long-term recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.

Your Mental Health Matters

Mental health is an important part of who people are. It dictates how we feel, how we relate to others, and how we solve problems. It matters when we’re children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. With 65 million Americans living with mental health conditions, suicide is now the 10^th leading cause of death in the United States.

Mental illnesses are emotionally and psychologically painful. It’s no wonder that people suffering with them are eager to overcome their symptoms and feelings. Patients often turn to drugs and alcohol to numb their pain, which commonly leads to substance addiction. Psychiatric professionals are more adept at addressing these illnesses with healthy and effective treatments.

Co-Occuring and Dual Diagnosis

Many people with drug or alcohol addictions suffer from other mental health conditions, as well. These are called co-occurring disorders or dual diagnoses.

Suicide Rate and Substance Abuse

The desperation and isolation of addiction are psychologically painful. Instead of getting treatment, too many people turn to suicide because they perceive it will bring them relief. Suicide can be prevented with addiction treatment.

ADHD & Addiction: The Correlation

ADHD makes life difficult to navigate. Sufferers often feel restless, bored, and agitated. Although substance abuse can deliver a temporary respite, it commonly leads to addiction. This then leads to more complex issues.
