Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Substance abuse poses significant challenges to both physical and mental health, leading to functional disabilities that affect daily living. This study aims to explore the relationship between substance abuse and its impact on functional disability and mental health outcomes. Many individuals grappling with addiction experience comorbid mental health disorders, which exacerbate social and occupational impairments. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for developing targeted interventions that address not only the addiction itself but also the associated functional disruptions and psychological consequences.
