Researchers believe that about half of people with addictions will experience a mental illness at some point in their lives. Similarly, half of people with mental health disorders will experience an addiction. Co-occurring disorders is when one has an addiction concurrently with a mental health disorder.

How Depression Led Me to Addiction:

Addiction is a gradual process. It doesn't start in a day. My advice to everyone is to avoid too much of thinking that leads to unnecessary depression.
Great advice!!
I don’t know who needs to hear this but for everyone in rehab rn I’m sooooooo proud of you 😁
I’m pretty certain nobody will find your comment in anyway positive. You are a complete stranger & it’s weird to tell strangers how their pain makes you “proud”. Delusional
Depression is so real. Thanks for sharing this message. Am glad she was able to recover
Ugh this makes me sad. Reminds me of my days of having chronic pain which led to double hip replacements, depression, and strong drug addiction! Happy to see her better!
Hey “Micro-dose” we are happy to see her better too. Don´t be sad we all go thru some harsh times but the important is our present. We hope you are doing excellent now.
Tears are streaming down my face. What an amazing person you are and how far you have come. You are beautiful inside and out. Keep up the good work-you are so worth all the good things life has to offer. God loves you and so do I.
Thank you for helping so many by sharing your story.
*going to college*
"I didn't know that I didn't know how to make decisions"
Wow, thank you for sharing
Glad it was helpful!
Our articulate speaker gives a helpful account because it is so painfully honest. Many thanks for posting this memory of a journey through the hell of addiction. Bless the young speaker who intends to get back out there and help others. 🙏
It's normal for depression to lead to drug and alcohol abuse.. depressed people need to talk to someone..getting into drugs is not the answer..it destroys..I'm happy you are sober and here to share your story..keep getting better and thanks for this video
I feel like she’s genuinely kind inside she just got abused by the world
Thanks for sharing this video. Depreciation has become a common problem nowadays. We should be mentally healthy.
We all need love and support and community
I have none of that. None.
Thank you for sharing this story. Depression has really been common nowadays. A lot of people can relate to her. Glad that she's better now.
We are so proud of her.
Depression is real! People must pay more attention to these feelings. Thank you for this wonderful story.
Depression is real, the U.S. is one of the most depressed countries in the world, according to the World Health Organization.
Depression is one of the major reasons why people are addicted to substance abuse. It should be properly managed before it will lead to addiction.
This is really sad. Depressed people are one of the most vulnerable to addiction. Once a person felt that no one is willing to help them, they would eventually turn into drugs. Thus making them addicts and drug dependant.
This story is very inspirational for all of us ,We never think about our family before addicted to any bad habit like bad habit of alcohol ,etc.
You are so right ! We need to educate our people about addiction; prevent for an amazing life!
I feel Proper Information needs to be passed Across on Depression.
We all should know that Use of Harmful Drugs doesn't kick Depression out.
For the Moment we might think it does but It makes Matter Worst.
She’s such an amazing speaker!! I can relate to her in regards to the depression and manic episodes.
This was so emotional. I’m really glad you were able to shear your story to us. God bless you.
I'm happy for her. I need help kicking alcohol

This is so touching. I believe he deserves better which I know he will get from this moment onward

This is an amazing testimony if I'll use that term. Your story had shown that not only addiction but even a background of physical and mental abuse can be healed just by desiring to get help and looking for it in the right places.
Thank you for sharing with the world about your life and how you cope up with depression. I hope many people will get inspired by this and let your past be a lesson to everyone. You are a brave person and I wish you find your happiness.
We are so proud of him!! Hoping his story can inspire more persons!

Thank you so much for your blessing sweety!
Really touching. Alot go through this daily, healing is all that matters.
Depression really matters and is real
This is incredibly important especially right now with quarantine! I suspect it may lead to higher drug use rates, unfortunately.
Dr. B Addiction Recovery yeah I agree, speaking from personal experience
Unfortunately it is Dr. B addiction, Sadly recent data from first responders and hospitals suggests that during social isolation restrictions overdoses increased 18% in March, 29% in April, and 42% in May. And that is only for the first 3 months!
I agree , speaking from personal experience I used way more during quarantine
@@Demigod8ether same. Was amazing for a while..... until I figured yeah we're quarantined but I can leave my house and live similarly. Media made it worse, which is why I decided to kick my fentanyl addiction and stay clean. Addicted for 5 years, today makes a week and a half clean and I don't think I'm ever going back, just one of those people who's body and mind won't allow me to continue
@@SAMEntalhealth Way to go with the attitude! Keep it up. God did not create you and want you to suffer. I am not a "religious" fanatic, bc actually religion is an enemy of what Christ actually is. I am presently suffering from watching a loved one going down as a heroine addict. I'm helpless in "fixing", but I know God hasn't given up. Many chances of help come along and they are from Him, but how do you get people to grab onto that arm of help? I'm finding hope in reading other's victories. I am proud of you.
The story is very relatable to the addictive people. it gives us a good lesson in how to deal with depression situations if it comes in our life.
Exactly! We hope this stories can inspire to all the people who are struggling!
Her story is so touching. It's encouraging to know that she is making a recovery from the addiction.
Hopping many people will get inspired to his story!
You are so SPOT ON !!!!!❤
Great story the struggle is real, some of these kids never had opportunity to learn from loving parents.
You are so right Ian, Sometimes we can´t
for everything a person has been through
God damn this girl really great at articulating so much about the experience of addiction. This story was absolutely riveting to me. My trajectory was super similar. I wish I could be friends with her! She seems really awesome.
I feel your pain. Wishing u stay strong through this. 😊
Thanks for sharing this. I think you not realize you help so many people through your amazing video.
Thank you for watching us Mila ! We hope we can changes lives with true stories of addiction 😍
Though, depressionbis not a good thing. But it should not lead to addiction. This is a lesson for everyone not to allow depression to lead them to addiction. Thank you.
This story is particularly touching and emotional. However, depression should not be the reason for addiction. Drug addicts need to seek rehabilitation for a healthy lifestyle.
So much of this, I relate to. She's explaining my life.
Get at me. Please. Your reaching out for a reason.
Same ..luv u 💛💙💜💚
Hey Audrey we are glad to hear you, that is the intention with the stories, so many people are in the same journey! We need to be together
Anxiety led to mine. Turns out in the short term alcohol works. In the long term it steals your soul and your life. 14 months clean and sober now.
Shes a great speaker and very inspiring because I can really relate to her story as I've always worked st restaurants IE: Wendy's, Arby's and now Napoli pizza. Shes right the employees come and go while the drug use by them is a constant every week. Lol gosh
Hey Alex! we are glad that you can relate with this story, Hope you are excellent now just like her!
This is one of The Best Addiction story I've Ever Listened to. How much more do you need to see before you know Recovery is 100% possible?
Depressed is always happened if abused ,and I proud of you because you with sincerely tell your story and encourage others abused to speak up what they feeling during recovery
A lot of people are going through a lot of problems which has resulted to depression. Not having solution to the problems leads to addiction. They will turn to something that will make them forget their problems. Thank God you are finally free.
I think shes speaking of alotta people who feel insecure ..
This was me thank you for your story
She´s so inspirational!
Lovely x
As the joker says " All it takes is one bad day" in her case depression. More than an addiction problem. I think it all boils down to support system and upbringing. Yes support system because for the most part they go into these because they are longing for something.
Indeed!
me too
Hey,Sister Anonymous.... thanks 🙏...I am from India n my life is same this addition does not discriminate.... keep going for programme prayer for u from India....🙏

Anxiety and depression are two things that are dangerous to anyone's wellbeing. So I think people needs to fight them through therapy.
idk why this is older... makes me happier to share :)
what
What an ignorance! I see people who are lured into addiction by depression at ignorant because when the influence of the alcohol left them they are still coming back to the same depression.
Depression can lead to use of drugs and eventually drug addiction. This is because I believe being depressed makes one dependent on something that makes them feel good and over using this drugs causes addiction.
She do be taking dabs thoe
Thanks for sharing but ,,, percocets aka snorting fentanyl?
Les C. Gull-- right. Fentanyl is not Percocets! Lol.
I’m a registered nurse.. lol Percocet is Oxycodone & Paracetamol or more commonly known as oxycodone and Tylenol. You’d be dead within a minute of snorting even a dot of pure fentanyl 💀
The street pills are called perc30's. They are made of fentanyl, it's not pure fentanyl.
Holly McCarthy if your percs have fentanyl in them, you’d be dead. That means they are fake..just sayin....
@@radiokitten385 lots of people use fentanyl without dying. Of course they are fake, they are bought off the street...through a dealer, not a doctor.
U BEAUTIFUL...💛💙💜💚
Getting high for 3 days damnn what you smoking girl
I'd love to tell my story.
Trans is not the answer, it's denial of the self
