Mental Health Awareness Month: Addiction and your mental health
SUMMARY: This month, our community has been discussing mental health, focusing today on addiction. Russell Rainey from Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services explained that addiction is a brain disease compelling individuals to continue harmful behaviors despite negative consequences. Key signs include persistent substance use, mounting negative consequences, and an inability to fulfill daily obligations. Addressing addiction requires compassionate and direct communication, often encouraging sufferers who are in denial or silently struggling. Professional treatment offers licensed, supportive care tailored to individual needs. Rainey stressed the importance of community support and resources, highlighting numerous local recovery programs and hotlines available for those in need.
As we continue to spread awareness for mental health, today's focus is on addiction and how it affects your mental health.
