If you are struggling with substance use and mental health disorders during this public health emergency, you may feel trapped. You may feel trapped in your home. You may feel trapped in an endless string of online meetings. You may feel trapped in a job that makes you feel unsafe at this time.

Feeling Boxed In

And you may feel trapped by your relationship with drugs or alcohol. Or you may feel trapped by a mental health disorder like anxiety, depression, and more. Worst case, you may feel trapped by both—co-occurring disorders that are threatening your wellbeing right now.
