Worksheets, Dual Diagnosis, And Relapse Prevention Misuse of alcohol and other drugs frequently co-occurs with other mental health conditions. For example, rates of PTSD among some groups misusing substances have been reported to be as high as 50% (Reynolds et al., 2005).

These include cognitive behavioral techniques, relapse prevention, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused brief therapy.
