What is a Co-Occuring Disorder?
Co-occurring disorders, or dual diagnosis, refer to both a mental health and a substance abuse disorder occurring simultaneously. Often, someone is given a dual diagnosis if one of their conditions is influenced, or even manifested by the other.. Common mental health conditions associated with co-occurring disorders include anxiety, mood disorders, PTSD, schizophrenia, and ADHD.
