A member asked:
Does drug abuse alter a already chemically imbalanced brain even worst?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Abuse of: chemical substances is not good for the brain. If you already have a mental health condition you are at higher risk. Please look into mind-body strategies such as yoga, meditation, brisk walking, etc. Your local Y may have such programs and you can also use a DVD at home for support. Peace and good health.
