TREATMENT
Addiction
Addiction is a complex disease.
Choosing recovery is possible.
According to a study published in 2014, an estimated 21 million Americans struggled with substance use disorder. 80% struggled with alcohol use disorder, while 7 million struggled with a drug use disorder. About 8 million Americans are coping with a substance use disorder and a co-occurring mental illness, or co-occurring disorders. Together, addiction and drug abuse cost Americans $200 billion a year.
The good news is choosing recovery is possible.
Choosing recovery starts by understanding the symptoms of substance use disorder and addiction. There is no one cause for addiction.
How mental health and addiction are related?
People who are struggling with alcohol or substance abuse often have an underlying mental health condition. Alternatively, someone who is experiencing symptoms of depression, for example, might turn to drugs or alcohol to avoid coping with their thoughts and emotions. Drug and alcohol addiction can exacerbate a mental health condition and vice versa, which is why it’s important to find an integrated treatment plan that addresses both disorders.
