Many people struggle with just one condition. But, some face the challenge of having both a mental disorder and a substance use disorder. This complex situation is known as a dual diagnosis, or a co-occurring disorder.
The relationship between mental health and substance abuse is complex and often goes hand-in-hand. For instance, someone with depression might use drugs or alcohol to cope with negative feelings. This can provide temporary relief, but ultimately worsens the depression.
Family members can be a powerful source of strength and understanding. Skyline Recovery Center encourages family involvement by offering educational resources and family therapy.
These sessions help families:
A supportive family environment can be a cornerstone for lasting well-being.
Recovery isn’t always easy, and there will be ups and downs. Skyline Recovery Center understands the importance of having a wide support network beyond just family.
