Addiction and Mental Health: Reasons They Go Hand in Hand
Description
The connection between addiction and mental health is a growing area of research. It's commonly called comorbidity, meaning multiple health conditions occur together. These conditions can interact and affect each other, or they can exist independently. Each case is unique because addiction and mental health are illnesses that impact brain chemistry, and the brain is a complex organ that we're still learning about. The treatment of addiction is a constantly evolving field. This video explores the relationship between addiction and mental health and why they tend to coexist. We delve into trauma, self-medication, genetics, brain chemistry, and more. Listen to this episode to learn about the connection between addiction and mental health.
