Support for overlapping PTSD and substance use concerns

Trauma-related symptoms and substance use can interact in complicated ways. An adult may use substances in response to distress, while substance use may also make routines, relationships, or emotional stability harder to manage. Care should begin with an individual review rather than assumptions about why either concern developed.
