Addiction

Although addiction is not technically considered a mental illness, it is a medical disorder that often co-occurs with mental illnesses. Some illnesses like depression and anxiety can be the root causes of substance abuse. One of the main characteristics of addiction is that people are compelled to use rather than doing so through choice.
The symptoms of depression can drive some people toward substance use to cope with their condition. However, consuming drugs or alcohol to self-medicate can increase the risk for addiction. Depression can raise the risk of substance abuse, as chemical intoxicants can be a way to self-medicate by numbing feelings of despair. This chemical intoxication can make depressive episodes more severe, thereby exacerbating self-destructive behavior and pessimistic thoughts.
