Mood Disorders
What are mood disorders?
Depression, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, bi-polar are all considered mood disorders.These conditions are significant because they are directly related to substance abuse and mental health.
Many people who are alcoholic or chemically dependent also suffer from a mood disorder. When a person has both a chemical dependency and a mood disorder they are considered to have a co-occurring disorder (formerly referred to as a dual diagnosis).
