Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion
2:00 am
Evanne Ní Chuilinn (Fine Gael)
Dr. O'Shea makes a great evidence-based case for the ability to recover from trauma and for trauma to be treated How much more challenging is it in the case of a dual diagnosis, where an individual is obviously self-medicating and that is where the addiction begins in the first place? When individuals are gone beyond initial treatment, how difficult is it for medical professionals to treat those with a dual diagnosis?
