Hi and welcome to you.

Yes, many of us here have mental health issues. Myself I am diagnosed as having bi-polar disorder. I have recently come to realise that I have borderline tendencies as well.

Welcome! Lots of us have both addiction and a mental health condition (or more than one). Glad you are here.

HI!

I consider my addiction a mental health issue...SUD or substance use disorder. It is a complex condition that is usually characterized by depression, anxiety, OCD, etc.

So yep.
