Hard to dx in detox: Most times it is very difficult to diagnose a mental health condition clearly so early in recovery. Hopefully u r in a recovery treatment program + peer support groups (aa/na etc). If you stay connected to groups u can get through + then a clear diagnosis can be made. In severe dual diagnosis cases it may be apparent early. Don't let anger make u use. Get angry @ yr addiction, not u or others.
