Drug Addiction and Depression

Depression and drug addiction commonly co-occur among thousands of people all around the world. But while addiction is generally well-understood in the sense that treatment options are very straightforward, treatment of depression is not. Depression affects everyone differently; its causes and symptoms vary so widely from person to person that it can be difficult to define at all. However, when combined with drug addiction or alcoholism, depression can prove especially troublesome as it can serve to exacerbate substance abuse problems, and substance abus

e can exacerbate depression issues. These powerful combinations can lead to serious, potentially fatal consequences. We have the best drug rehabilitation center in Pune.

Depression is a serious, debilitating disease that left untreated can lead to suicidal behaviors. Clinical depression is defined as persistent feelings of sadness, loneliness, self-loathing, isolation, the inability to find pleasure in once-enjoyable activities, disruption of work or social life, inability to feel emotions, exhaustion, lack of motivation, feelings of helplessness and sometimes suicidal thoughts and even suicide attempts. Depression is usually diagnosed during an individual therapy session and can be treated with several different drugs and family/social therapies.

One of the most significant problems with depression is that many people seek out drugs or alcohol to self-medicate the debilitating symptoms of this condition. Over time depressed people who turn to substance abuse will become more and more tolerant of the drugs they use, eventually developing a physical and emotional dependence on the substances. Once full-blown addiction has set in, any prior symptoms of depression are often greatly amplified, leading to more drug abuse and more depression.

However, herein lies one of the major problems with depression and addiction. Many therapists and addiction experts believe that by treating depression you will automatically treat the addiction. However, this cannot explain the fact that both addiction and depression occur independently of one another, and that some people suffer from depression and then addiction, whereas some become depressed because of their substance abuse. Additionally, treatment for each condition must be independent because addiction is not simply a "symptom" of depression - it is a clinical, neurological disease. Therefore even if you treat depression successfully, the addiction will remain.

If you or someone you care about is suffering from both addiction and depression, you should know that there are treatment options available that can successfully treat both conditions at once.
