Abstract

Background: Compared to the general population, individuals with substance use disorders (SUD) report more frequently to suffer from sleep disturbances and symptoms of depression, and to perceive lower social support. Here, we investigated whether this pattern of mental health issues could be confirmed and replicated among individuals with amphetamine use disorder (AUD). We also assessed the degree of perceived social support from their families, friends and significant others, always compared to healthy controls (HC) of the general population.

Method: Individuals with AUD attending the Outpatient Department for Substance Abuse of the Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences (Kermanshah, Iran) (n = 468; 30.8% females; mean age: 29.16 years) and healthy controls (HC; n = 376; 34.6% females; mean age: 24.11 years) participated in the study. Participants completed a series of self-rating questionnaires covering sociodemographic information, symptoms of insomnia and depression, and perceived social support from their families, friends and significant others.

Results: Compared to HC, individuals with AUD reported higher scores for insomnia and depression, and lower scores for perceived social support (families; friends; significant others). Older age and higher severity scores for depression and insomnia were the predictors in the binary logistic regression model to identify individuals with AUD and HC with a precision of 97.4%.

Conclusions: Individuals with AUD additionally suffer from insomnia and depression, along with lower perceived social support. Given that standardized intervention programs for insomnia, depression and social competencies exist, such interventions might mitigate mental health issues among individuals with AUD and improve their psychosocial behavior.

背景:与一般人群相比,物质使用障碍(SUD)患者报告更频繁地遭受睡眠障碍和抑郁症状,并感知到较低的社会支持。在这里,我们调查了这种精神健康问题模式是否可以在安非他明使用障碍(AUD)患者中得到证实和复制。我们还评估了来自他们的家庭、朋友和重要他人的感知社会支持程度,总是与普通人群的健康对照组(HC)进行比较。方法:在伊朗Kermanshah医科大学(Kermanshah, Iran)药物滥用门诊就诊的AUD患者(n = 468;30.8%的女性;平均年龄:29.16岁)和健康对照(HC;N = 376;34.6%的女性;平均年龄:24.11岁)参加研究。参与者完成了一系列自评问卷,内容包括社会人口统计信息、失眠和抑郁症状,以及对来自家人、朋友和重要他人的社会支持的感知。结果:与HC相比,AUD患者报告失眠和抑郁得分较高,感知社会支持得分较低(家庭;朋友;重要的人)。在二元logistic回归模型中,年龄较大、抑郁和失眠严重程度评分较高是识别AUD和HC个体的预测因子,准确率为97.4%。结论:AUD患者还患有失眠和抑郁,以及较低的感知社会支持。鉴于存在针对失眠、抑郁和社会能力的标准化干预方案,这些干预措施可能会减轻AUD患者的心理健康问题,并改善他们的社会心理行为。
