What are Co-Occurring Disorders in Teens?

Co-occurring disorders in teens occur when mental health issues, such as depression, anxiety, or trauma-related disorders, coexist with substance use problems. It’s essential to recognize that these disorders can exacerbate each other and require specialized treatment for effective management.

Common Symptoms of Co-Occurring Disorders in Teens

Seeking help for co-occurring disorders in teens is very important for their overall well-being and future success. Without proper intervention, these issues can worsen over time and lead to long-term consequences, including academic failure, legal problems, and impaired relationships. Early intervention and treatment can make a huge difference in a teenager’s life, helping them build resilience and coping skills for the future.
