Aspects of Need Addressed: Medical, Psychiatric
Many of our loved ones who struggle with mental illness also suffer from a co-occuring substance abuse disorder. This can be "double trouble". It has been for my son. But now he's been clean for about a month now. He's making progress.
I am always interested in seeing new information on this terribly vexing problem. Here's a good presentation by Hazeldon and WestBridge Community Services. I am particularly fond of WestBridge, which my son attended for a while. It does a very good job in treating dual diagnosis cases.
Here's the presentation, a slide show. (Be patient. It's a big file and will take a little while to load.)
