Substance abuse and domestic violence can create a distressing cycle that compounds the suffering of those involved. Understanding this intricate relationship is critical for the treatment and prevention of both issues. This post will explore the close connection between substance abuse and domestic violence and highlight how our Women’s Center provides comprehensive, compassionate treatment to help women recover.
Substance Abuse and Domestic Violence: The Disturbing Nexus
Every minute, nearly 20 people experience intimate partner abuse in the U.S., and many more undergo emotional and psychological abuse. A significant number of these cases have a shared underlying factor – substance use.
Substances like alcohol and drugs can fuel aggressive behavior, impair judgment, and escalate conflicts, often leading to domestic violence. Conversely, victims may drink or use drugs to cope with their trauma, further entangling the two issues.
