Antidepressants and substance use

Antidepressants are among the most commonly prescribed medications in the United States, and taking one as prescribed is not misuse. This page is about where they meet substance use, and when long-term use raises a question worth putting to a clinician.

They are prescribed for depression and anxiety, and also for social anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, seasonal affective disorder and ADHD. Doctors first began using them in the 1950s, and the steady growth in use since is what has raised questions about long-term use and dependence.

A mental health condition and a substance use problem often travel together, and treating one without the other tends not to hold. Nova treats both at once. The resources below cover the therapies that address co-occurring conditions.

Prescribed for
Depression, anxiety, PTSD, SAD, ADHD
In use since

The concern
Long-term use and dependence

If you are managing a mental health condition and a substance at the same time, that is what the admissions line is for.

Understanding how antidepressants interact with substance use is just one part of comprehensive addiction treatment. Explore these related resources to learn more about recovery options:

If you or a loved one is struggling with substance use and mental health challenges, Nova Recovery Center offers integrated treatment that addresses both conditions. Call (512) 605-2955 to speak with an addiction specialist today.
