The extent to which mental health problems, including current anxiety and depressive symptoms, may co-occur, or are associated, with the acquisition of sexually transmitted infections other than HIV remains largely unexplored among men who have sex with men. In a cross-sectional survey of 8,381 US men who have sex with men recruited from a sexual networking website, 15 percent reported a past 60-day sexually transmitted infection diagnosis. Among HIV-negative men, increased odds of reporting a sexually transmitted infection were associated with current anxiety symptoms and past 60-day drug use. Findings underscore the need to better understand causal pathways among anxiety, drug use, and sexually transmitted infection acquisition and transmission among men who have sex with men.
