What Can Happen If Dual Diagnosis Is Left Untreated
Individuals who suffer from co-occurring mental illness and addiction often face unique obstacles to overcome in sobriety.
Unfortunately, many symptoms of mental health conditions are similar to the symptoms of substance abuse, so co-occurring disorders can be difficult to diagnose. Furthermore, this makes it important to diagnose and treat dual diagnosis patients for both disorders simultaneously.

How to Confront Someone with a Drinking Problem
April is Alcohol awareness month, and its main focus is to bring attention to the alcoholism issue that is still very real in America.
Alcoholism does not discriminate. It touches all walks of life and not only affects the alcoholic, but all those who are involved in the alcoholic’s life. Having said that, if you do know someone with a drinking issue, it is time to start considering trying to get them help and informing them you are worried about their situation.
This is not something that is easy to do and it definitely doesn't always go well. Just always remember this: If you are trying to help someone, you are trying to save their life. It's okay if it doesn't go well as long as your intentions are good!
Here are some tips if you plan on confronting someone you know.

Restore Me to Sanity
I was picked on quite a bit in school because I was short in stature.
Looking back, I understand I was easy prey. I did not wear the same clothes, listen to the same music or follow the same "cool" trends as other kids. I was an outcast. I was different.
A year later, I found my first escape from reality: alcohol and marijuana. I would soon discover my dad's prescriptions for Phentermine and Ultracet and take them before and during classes. Occasionally, I would steal my parents booze in a flask and sneak it into school.

Emotional Sobriety: How I Cleaned Up My Life After the Drugs Were Gone
My first year of sobriety was all about figuring out how to get through each day without putting a substance in my body.
I was sober, but I was bored out of my mind. I was unhappy and I was still evoking chaos in certain aspects of my life. My mind was still swirling with anxious thoughts about the future and regrets about the past.
I’d put the drugs down, and that’s great, but now what?
The second year of my sobriety was about cleaning up what was inside of me. It was about developing emotional sobriety.

Common Co-Occurring Disorders Associated with Substance Abuse
When an individual is diagnosed with a substance use disorder and a co-existing mental health disorder, the paired disorders are referred to as co-occurring disorders, also known as dual disorders.
Common comorbid mental health disorders include depression, anxiety, manic depression (bipolar disorder), panic disorder and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Although the association is usually linked with a mental health disorder, the comorbidity may also include a physical health disorder (e.g., heart disease, HIV infection, or Hepatitis C) or other disorders.

Managing Anxiety in Recovery: How Meditation Helped Quiet My Mind
I remember lying in bed one night when I was about 13 years old. Out of nowhere, the room felt like it was spinning; it felt like time was passing much faster than I could keep up with. My brain was racing like a broken hamster wheel that I couldn’t figure out how to stop.
I had a feeling of impending doom as my body became tense and I went into a full blown panic attack. I thought I must be crazy; there was absolutely no reason for me to feel this way.
This was my first encounter with anxiety.

From Grieving to Growing: A Story of Addiction and Recovery
Addiction does not discriminate.
Growing up, when I heard about people addicted to drugs I thought of the homeless-type person, living in a box under a bridge. Not the mom with three kids and two jobs, not the hard-working pre-med student, not the high school teacher… you get the idea.
So, surely for me, a (mostly) happy young man who grew up in a beautiful suburb with loving parents and plenty of potential, it was quite the shock once I admitted to myself I was a drug addict at the age of 20.
