Is there a correlation between substance use and family dysfunction?
Answer
When looking at families that are dysfunctional, substance use may actually be the cause of the dysfunction, or sometimes it is the result. We do not always know which one came first, the substance use or the dysfunction, but when we have substance use in a family, it definitely is correlated in some way to some level of dysfunction.
