General population data from the National Comorbidity Survey are presented on co-occurring DSM-III-R addictive and mental disorders. Co-occurrence is highly prevalent in the general population and usually due to the association of a primary mental disorder with a secondary addictive disorder. It is associated with a significantly increased probability of treatment, although the finding that fewer than half of cases with 12-month co-occurrence received any treatment in the year prior to interview suggests the need for greater outreach efforts.read more

Overlap of clusters of psychiatric symptoms among clients of a comprehensive addiction treatment service
TL;DR: Multimorbidity was significantly correlated with female gender, unemployment, less social support, cannabis problems, fewer legal problems, and increased treatment engagement, and patients with more substance use disorders presented more psychiatric symptoms.

Overview of Descriptive Epidemiology of Mental Disorders
TL;DR: A challenge for sociologists working in psychiatric epidemiology is to refine their analytic models sufficiently to establish the basis for structural interventions.

A randomized, placebo-controlled trial of citicoline add-on therapy in outpatients with bipolar disorder and cocaine dependence.
TL;DR: The use of citicoline was associated with improvement relative to placebo in some aspects of declarative memory and cocaine use, but not mood, and the findings are promising and suggest that larger trials ofciticoline are warranted.

TL;DR: The prevalence of psychiatric disorders is greater than previously thought to be the case, and morbidity is more highly concentrated than previously recognized in roughly one sixth of the population who have a history of three or more comorbid disorders.

Posttraumatic stress disorder in the National Comorbidity Survey.
TL;DR: Progress in estimating age-at-onset distributions, cohort effects, and the conditional probabilities of PTSD from different types of trauma will require future epidemiologic studies to assess PTSD for all lifetime traumas rather than for only a small number of retrospectively reported "most serious" traumAs.
