Depression and substance use often co-occur. Many people with depression try to self-medicate—intentionally or unintentionally—with drugs or alcohol. On the other hand, chronic substance use can also trigger depressive episodes and disorders. The Discover Recovery team knows how challenging it can be to quit using drugs and alcohol when your mental health gets in the way. Our co-occurring depression treatment program can help you or a loved one find strength and discover a new path while managing mental health symptoms in recovery.
