About Addiction
In 2014, about 21.5 million Americans ages 12 and older (8.1%) were classified 
with a substance use disorder in the past year. Of those, 2.6 million had
problems with both alcohol and drugs, 4.5 million had problems with drugs
but not alcohol, and 14.4 million had problems with alcohol only.
According to SAMHSA’s 2014 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH)
(PDF | 3.4 MB), approximately 7.9 million adults had co-occurring disorders
in 2014. During the past year, for those adults surveyed who experienced
substance use disorders and any mental illness, rates were highest among
adults ages 26 to 49 (42.7%). For adults with past-year serious mental
illness and co-occurring substance use disorders, rates were highest
among those ages 18 to 25 (35.3%) in 2014.
