Addiction 101: Addiction, Mental Health, and Psychiatric Comorbidities
Manage episode 301456635 series 2362218
Sections from today's episode
- How someone becomes addicted and what keeps them addicted are not usually the same things
- Keep in mind the ‘self-medication theory’ and ask “what are they treating with their substance use?”
- It's important for diagnostic and treatment reasons to understand if the substance use or mental disorder occurred first because likely one causes the other and this may impact the treatment
