My doctor said I am at danger of cross addiction but I’m confused by what that actually is. Has anyone experienced this?

My doctor told me the same thing. Cross addiction happens when a person, who is already severely addicted to one substance, becomes dependent on another substance, too. For example, I was a raging alcoholic, and eventually my disease became so bad that I didn’t care about my health or wellbeing and I got hooked on heroin, too. Luckily I went to extensive rehab and finally made it to a sober, healthy lifestyle.
