“…101 Some anxiety disorders, such as social anxiety disorder, precede alcohol use disorder in up to 80% of cases. 105 Alcohol might be used to cope with anxiety symptoms, thus increasing the likelihood of developing alcohol use disorder. 85 A prospective study of young adults between 19 and 21 years old at baseline found that social anxiety disorder increased the risk of alcohol use disorder onset, particularly among women, but not the other way around.…”

Alcohol use disorder is a major contributor to the morbidity and mortality burden worldwide. It often coexists with other psychiatric disorders; however, the nature of this comorbidity is still a matter of debate. In this Series paper, we examine the main psychiatric disorders associated with alcohol use disorder, including the prevalence of co-occurring disorders, the temporal nature of the relationship, and mechanisms that might explain comorbidity across the lifespan. Overall, this disorder co-occurs with a wide range of other psychiatric disorders, especially those disorders involving substance use and violent or aggressive behaviour. The causal pathways between alcohol use disorder and other psychiatric disorders are heterogeneous. Hypotheses explaining these relationships include reciprocal direct causal associations, shared genetic and environmental causes, and shared psychopathological characteristics of broader diagnostic entities (eg, externalising disorders). Efforts to untangle the associations between alcohol use disorder and other disorders across the lifespan remain a crucial avenue of research.

“…One of these mechanisms is related to the dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis of animals and humans prenatally exposed to the drug (Hellemans et al, 2010) that eventually leads to anxiety, depression, conduct disorders and emotional disorders (Easey et al, 2019). The comorbidity between these disorders and alcohol use and abuse is well known (Kingston et al, 2017;Oliveira et al, 2018).…”

“…In most cases, SAD begins earlier than the comorbid disorder 15,19,21–23. Moreover, the presence of SAD was found to be a predictor for the development of subsequent major depression (MD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) 10,13,19,24–27. Patients with SAD who have comorbid psychiatric disorders are more likely to have increased symptom severity, treatment resistance, and decreased functioning (such as missed days at work or dropping out from school), and they also have higher rates of suicide when compared to ones without comorbidity 9,28,29…”

Comorbid disorders are highly prevalent in patients with social anxiety disorder, occurring in as many as 90% of patients. The presence of comorbidity may affect the course of the disease in several ways such as comorbidity in patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) is related to earlier treatment-seeking behavior, increased symptom severity, treatment resistance and decreased functioning. Moreover, comorbidities cause significant difficulties in nosology and diagnosis, and may cause treatment challenges. In this review, major psychiatric comorbidities that can be encountered over the course of SAD as well as comorbidity associated diagnostic and therapeutic challenges will be discussed.
