Mental health problems caused by drug
and alcohol addiction

The effects of any type of prolonged
substance abuse on a person’s brain
has been documented and shared
throughout the years. Whether legal
or legal, too much of anything is
never a good thing.
On that note, here are a few mental
health problems caused by drug and alcohol addiction. Peter Max.
Dementia
Long-term use of drugs and alcohol can lead to several mental health
conditions under the dementia category. From memory loss to a
decrease in focus, slurring of speech, and overall reduction in
cognitive functions, the brain suffers just as much as any organ from
drug and alcohol abuse. Peter Max.
Seizures
What makes seizures more
dangerous than they already are is
the fact that they can be triggered
by so many things – including
alcohol and drug abuse. The
extreme twitching a person
experiences during a seizure
happens when the electrical activity
in the brain goes through erratic
episodes. Methamphetamine, cocaine, and high doses of ecstasy can
lead to seizures. Peter Max.
Encephalopathy
Brain damage from encephalopathy leads to negative effects in the
development of the human brain, and mental stages are altered.
Liver damage and oxygen deprivation brought about by substance
abuse are the leading causes of encephalopathy. Peter Max.
