Abstract
: The background and significance of the study on substance use and mental health disorders in India highlight the following key points: Public Health Concerns: Substance abuse and mental health disorders are major public health issues with significant impacts on individuals, families, and society. These issues are prevalent in India due to its diverse population and varying socio-economic conditions. Substance Use Disorders: Substance use disorders involve the harmful use of substances like alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs. On the other hand, mental disorders encompass a wide range of conditions affecting thoughts, emotions, and behavior. Co-Occurrence of Disorders: The co-occurrence of substance use and mental disorders, known as dual diagnosis or comorbidity, presents complex challenges for healthcare systems and treatment providers. Individuals with co-occurring disorders often experience greater functional impairment, higher risk of relapse, and poorer treatment outcomes compared to those with a single disorder. Prevalence in India: The National Mental Health Survey conducted in 2015-2016 Prevalence in India: The National Mental Health Survey conducted in 2015-2016 revealed that around 22.4% of Indian adults have alcohol use disorders, 4.1% have other substance use disorders, and 13.7% suffer from one or more mental disorders, with depression, anxiety disorders, and neurosis being common conditions. Need for Addressing Issues: The statistics underscore the urgent need to address substance use and mental health problems in India, especially considering the country's rapidly changing social and economic landscape, which may contribute to the development or worsening of these issues. Importance of Studying Co-Occurring Disorders: Studying co-occurring disorders is crucial due to the potential for more severe clinical presentations, poorer treatment outcomes, and increased healthcare costs. Individuals with co-occurring disorders face unique challenges such as stigma, difficulties in accessing appropriate treatment, and heightened risk of adverse outcomes. Overall, understanding and addressing the co-occurrence of substance use and mental disorders in India is essential for improving healthcare outcomes, reducing stigma, and enhancing access to effective treatment services. : The objectives and structure of the research on co-occurring substance use and mental disorders in India can be summarized as follows:
