Addicted and Mentally Ill

"Addicted and Mentally Ill: Stories of Courage, Hope, and Empowerment presents vignettes about people with mental illness and addiction whose situations are representative of what goes on in a dual-diagnosis in-patient setting. This nonclinical, easy-to-read resource addresses the misunderstandings and prejudices surrounding dual diagnosis, the necessity for appropriate treatment and follow-up care, twelve-step principles and practices, medication, and the involvement of family in treatment. Presenting unique insights into the lives and thoughts of dually diagnosed people, this book shows how co-occurring mental illness and addiction can be treated with the minimum amount of blame, shame, or poor decision making."--Jacket.
