Substance Abuse and Mental Health Facilities in Addison, TX

If you live in Addison and you start abusing drugs and alcohol, there is a high risk that you might develop a co-occurring mental health disorder. On the other hand, if you have an undiagnosed mental illness, there is a likelihood that you might start abusing these substances to self-medicate the symptoms of your mental illness.

Research studies show that substance abuse and mental health disorders tend to have some underlying causes in common. These might include changes in the composition of the brain, early exposure to traumatic and stressful events, and genetic vulnerabilities.

Suicidal Behavior

You might have a high likelihood of engaging in suicidal behavior if you are addicted to drugs and alcohol. this is also the case if you have ever expressed a desire to die or felt trapped. Your risk might also be high if you often act anxious and agitation or engage in reckless behavior.

The risk of suicide among addicts might also be heightened by isolation from family and friends, avoiding social situation, and abandoning the hobbies and activities that you used to enjoy - especially if you are also struggling with substance abuse and addiction.

Antisocial Personality Disorder

Drug and alcohol abuse is common among people struggling with antisocial personality disorder in Addison. This mental health disorder is often accompanied by poor impulse control, which could lead you to engage in increasingly risky behavior than you would have done if you did not have ASPD.

Some of these behaviors include but are not limited to substance abuse. If you get involved with these intoxicating drugs, you might even share needles with other people - and end up living with hepatitis B and C or HIV/AIDS. This is because your mental health condition will reduce your inhibitions.

It is recommended that you seek dual diagnosis treatment to manage all of the disorders that you have been struggling with simultaneously so that one does not cause the other to recur in the future.

This is especially true if you have been diagnosed with both substances abuse as well as another co-occurring mental health or medical disorders. Although these disorders tend to occur at the same time in many cases, it is possible to overcome them. To be able to do so, you will have to go through a highly integrated dual diagnosis treatment program.
