The Connection Between Mental Health and Substance Abuse
The National Bureau of Economic Research found that there is a “definite connection between mental illness and the use of addictive substances.” Their study found those with mental disorders are responsible for the consumption of:
-
38% of alcohol
-
44% of cocaine
-
40% of cigarettes
The World Health Organization claims depression is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Substance abuse can worsen depression, increasing the risk of addiction, overdose and suicide.
