Abstract

Substance use remains a major challenge in adolescent health. The coexisting use of these substances often creates hurdles for accurate diagnosis of other comorbid psychiatric conditions. It is of critical importance that health care providers be aware of both the isolated presentation of substance use disorder and that with coexisting psychiatric illness in vulnerable children.
