It’s both, but you can’t address the mental health and economic circumstances until the person gets clean. They’re not mentally able while they’re on drugs.

I’m not advocating for self medication but I’m saying there are legitimate uses for drugs, especially with mental health problems. Hell even ketamine, mushrooms, and LSD are accepted forms of therapy in this day and age.

I think not addressing the mental health and economic substances until they are “clean”, will make it a lot harder for them to get clean I don’t understand why we need to pick one or the other when thorough and holistic interventions would work a lot better
