For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
