The pressure to fit in with others and the stress to be trendy among friends may play a significant role in drug and alcohol abuse among this population. Personally experiencing or witnessing a violent or tragic event that caused feelings of intense fear, helplessness, or horror can sometimes cause PTSD. Events that may lead to the development of this anxiety disorder include rape, war, natural disasters, abuse, and serious accidents. These events may also lead to drug and alcohol abuse as a means of coping, for dual diagnosis.
The length of addiction treatment is highly individual. It is not uncommon for individuals to experience more than one treatment experience on their journey to abstinence and recovery. It is believed by many in the treatment community that treating addiction is a lifelong pursuit, meaning that managing one's recovery from alcohol and/or drug problems must continue over a lifetime.
