As recovery from substance use disorder becomes more than a mere quantifiable outcome, there exists a need to discuss and propose the underlying theoretical constructs that ultimately describe and identify the science of recovery. In this abstract undertaking, we propose an initial formulation of a grand theory of recovery science, built upon the seminal theories of recovery capital, recovery-oriented systems of care, and socioecological theory. This grand theory - labeled recovery-informed theory (RIT) - states that successful long-term recovery is self-evident and is a fundamentally emancipatory set of processes. This paper will discuss, analyze, and explore this theory as it is situated within the larger substance use, misuse, and disorder contexts. The uses, implications, and benefits of RIT as an organizing point of inquiry for recovery science are also discussed. By promoting the role of subjective recovery experience in the formulation of the study of recovery, it may be possible to summon new ideas, metrics, and strategies that can directly address substance use disorders in society. Adopting a recovery-informed understanding as follows from this grand theory may allow individual recovery and wellness trajectories to be explored, adapted, and modified to exemplify person-centered and individualized recovery strategies.

There are many counseling approaches, treatment programs, and psychosocial interventions for individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs). Although some have been shown in clinical trials to be more effective than others, to date there is no single, superior treatment approach appropriate for all clients. While brief treatments have been successful with alcohol problems, longer term treatments are often needed for drug problems. For clients with more severe SUDs, long-term involvement in professional treatment (including medication-assisted therapies), mutual support programs, or both may be needed. This chapter includes a summary of treatment principles and guidelines that can serve as a framework for helping clients with SUDs.

ObjectiveWe investigated whether mental illness is associated with lower rates of carotid endarterectomy (CEA)/carotid artery stenting (CAS) after stroke due to carotid stenosis.MethodsIn this retrospective cross-sectional study, ischemic stroke cases due to carotid stenosis were identified in the 2007–2014 Nationwide (National) Inpatient Sample. Psychiatric conditions were identified by secondary ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes for schizophrenia/psychoses, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, or substance use disorders. Using logistic regression, we tested the association between psychiatric conditions and CEA/CAS, controlling for demographic, clinical, and hospital factors.ResultsAmong 37,474 included stroke cases, 6,922 (18.5%) had a psychiatric comorbidity. The presence of any psychiatric condition was associated with lower odds of CEA/CAS (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.84, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.78–0.90). Schizophrenia/psychoses (OR 0.72, 95% CI 0.55–0.93), depression (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.75–0.91), and substance use disorders (OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.65–0.83) were each associated with lower odds of CEA/CAS. The association of mental illness and CEA/CAS was dose-dependent: compared to patients without mental illness, patients with multiple psychiatric comorbidities (OR 0.74, 95% CI 0.62–0.87) had lower odds of CEA/CAS than those with only one psychiatric comorbidity (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.79–0.92; p value for trend <0.001).ConclusionThe odds of carotid revascularization after stroke is lower in patients with mental illness, particularly those with schizophrenia/psychoses, depression, substance use disorders, and multiple psychiatric diagnoses.

Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) are frequent conditions in out drug treatment centers. There are evidences about the high prevalence of ADHD in SUD patients (20%) compared with just ADHD in general population (1–7.3%). Both disorders and psychiatric comorbidity are important in the diagnosis proceeding. The objective of this study is search the difference in psychiatric comorbidity conditions between patients with ADHD and Cocaine SUD and ADHD and Cannabis SUD. ADHD was present in 158 patients of a total sample in which 46,8% used cocaine, 17.1% cannabis and 36.1% used both. Mood disorders were 26.8% in cocaine users, 21.7% in cannabis and 18.9% in both. Anxiety disorders were 20.3% in cocaine users, 37.5 in cannabis and 13% in both users. Primary psychotic disorders were 2.9% in cocaine users, none in cannabis and 11,1% in both drug users. Personality disorders by cluster were, Cluster A: 11.3% in cocaine group, 36% in cannabis group and 24.5 in cannabis and cocaine group. Cluster B: 33.8% in cocaine group, 44% in cannabis group and 51.9% in cannabis and cocaine group. Cluster C: 9.9% in cocaine group, 28% in cannabis group and 19.2% in cannabis and cocaine group. There could be common pathways of neuronal damage related to psychiatric comorbidity depending of used drug, the differences in comorbidity found in this study could explain a little part of it. It is important to manage SUD-ADHD and other psychiatric comorbidity in order to improve the outcomes of these patients.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

The Frequency tables, summary tables and appropriate graphs were prepared to describe the population characteristics and study finding.Result: Total 62 participants were approach for interview. Considering inclusion and exclusion criteria finally 50 patients were selected for the study. In this study, anxiety disorders was 8%, behaviour/ impulse control disorders was 8%, mood disorders was 16%, substance use disorders was 24%, schizophrenia spectrum disorders was 12% and composite psychiatric disorders was 32%. Among droup out patient’s non- completion of primary education was 14%, non- completion of secondary education was 20%, non- completion of higher secondary education was 24%, not entry to tertiary education was 12% and non- completion of tertiary education was 30%. Among behaviour/impulse control disorders non- completion of primary education was 6%, substance use disorders non- completion of higher secondary education was 10%, mood disorder both non- completion of higher secondary education and non- completion of tertiary education were 6%. Among composite psychiatric disorders non- completion of secondary education, non- completion of higher secondary education and non- completion of tertiary education were 8%, 6% and 12% respectively. Socioeconomic status represented the homogenous result in this study. Most of the psychiatric morbidity was male (62%) and age group of 18-24 years (54%).Conclusion: Onset of mental disorder and subsequent droup out from education that was found in this study. Further multi-centered prospective and population-based studies should be desined to fint out the exact situation.TAJ 2013; 26: 38-42
