Alcohol and Drug relapse occurs in the same way the addiction manifested itself to begin with. That is, by a series of counterproductive occurrences that can create a downward spiral. The relapse brings about the return of the alcohol or drug addiction in the person’s life and the self-destructive pattern that was associated with it. The path to alcohol and drug addiction recovery is lost and replaced by the addiction all over again.
Children also suffer from Depression. Just because a child seems depressed or sad, does not necessarily mean they have depression. Childhood depression is different from the normal “blues” and everyday emotions that occur as a child develops. But if these symptoms become persistent, disruptive, and interfere with social activities, interests, schoolwork and family life, it may indicate that he or she has the medical illness called depression. Keep in mind that while depression is a serious illness, it is also a treatable one.
