313-Self-Medicating Depression
Manage episode 425550852 series 2946104
About a third of all people experiencing mental illnesses and about half of people living with severe mental illnesses also experience substance use disorders.
"These statistics are mirrored in the populations of people living with substance use disorders. where about a third of all alcohol abusers and more than half of all drug abusers report experiencing a mental illness," according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
That statistic, like all statistics, is about real people. Not numbers.
This episode's guest, Donald, is one of those people. And he shares his story of dual diagnosis- living with substance use disorder in addition to depression and anxiety.
