Topic/Theme: The Impact of Substance Use Disorder
Description: Substance Use Disorder (SUD) has profound effects on physical and mental health, relationships, and society. It can lead to chronic health conditions, emotional distress, and social isolation, while also straining healthcare systems and communities.
