Decoding Co-Occurring Disorders: A Deep Dive into Treatment and Symptoms

Symptoms largely reflect the areas in the person's brain that are damaged. So you see that when they're drinking, but you also see that when they are not drinking, if they have basically made that state semi-permanent in their brain.
Ever wondered how substance use can affect mental health even after someone stops drinking? In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes unpacks the complexities of treating co-occurring disorders, guided by SAMHSA TIP 42 Part 9. Dr. Snipes covers a range of topics including substance-induced disorders, alcohol withdrawal symptoms, and alcohol-related brain damage. She also delves into the impact of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders on relationships and impulse control.
This episode sheds light on how these symptoms can persist long after alcohol use has ceased, offering practical counseling tools for both professionals and those personally affected. Whether you're a counselor, coach, or someone seeking to understand these issues better, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable advice.
