“…How and why symptoms of anxiety and depression and harmful alcohol consumption often occur simultaneously is not well understood, including possible causal mechanisms [ 7 , 8 ]. The self-medication hypothesis, explaining the relationship by suggesting that alcohol is used to relieve emotional stress, is suggested to be the approach with the greatest support in the research literature [ 9 , 10 ].…”

BackgroundWe investigated the associations between symptoms of anxiety and depression and alcohol drinking behavior among adolescents, by focusing on the importance of symptom load, as well as gender differences.MethodsData was derived from a cross-sectional school based survey among adolescents in upper secondary schools in Norway. Among other variables adolescents reported on symptoms of anxiety and depression, time of onset and extent of alcohol use. The sample consisted of 6238 adolescents aged 16–18 years. We estimated prevalence of alcohol drinking behaviors in relation to severity of symptoms of anxiety and depression.ResultsHigher levels of depression symptoms were associated with earlier onset of alcohol use, more frequent consumption and intoxications. The associations between anxiety and depression symptoms and early drinking onset were stronger for girls than for boys. Higher levels of anxiety symptoms were only associated with alcohol consumption among girls.ConclusionsBoys and girls with depressive symptoms and girls with anxiety symptoms are more likely to have unhealthy patterns of alcohol drinking. Preventive strategies at all levels could possibly profit from a common approach to mental health and alcohol use, in particular for girls in mid-adolescence.

“…Pojedinci s anksioznim i depresivnim poremećajima često više puše kako bi ublažili simptome te u tom slučaju psihički poremećaji dovode do više pušenja, ali pušenje može i dovesti do većeg razvoja psihičkih poremećaja pogoršavaju-59 Izvorni rad Original articles ći početne simptome (18)(19)(20)(21). Kao i kod pušenja, pojedinci često pribjegavaju i konzumaciji alkohola kako bi ublažili simptome stresa, pa je tako i kod populacije studenata i adolescenata utvrđena pozitivna povezanost povećane i češće konzumacije alkohola s povećanim razinama depresivnosti i anksioznosti (22)(23)(24)(25)(26). S druge strane, utvrđen je pozitivan učinak redovne tjelesne aktivnosti na psihičko stanje u smislu umanjivanja stresa i razina anksioznosti (27)(28)(29).…”

Ciljevi rada bili su ispitati učestalost negativnih zdravstvenih ponašanja (konzumiranje alkohola, cigareta i kave) te ispitati povezanost između osobina ličnosti i tjelesne aktivnosti i izraženosti simptoma depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa. METODE: Korišteni su sljedeći mjerni instrumenti: (a) upitnik općih podataka koji je sadržavao sociodemografska obilježja te pitanja o životnim navikama (konzumiranje alkohola i cigareta); (b) Skala depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa (DASS); (c) Big Five upitnik osobina ličnosti (BFI); (d) Međunarodni upitnik o tjelesnoj aktivnosti (IPAQ). REZULTATI: Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju kako značajno veći broj studenata ne konzumira cigarete nego što ih konzumira (χ2=10,05, p<0,01), dok najveći broj studenata alkohol konzumira rijetko ili vikendom (χ2=32,93, p<0,001). Kod studenata koji ne konzumiraju alkohol utvrđena je granično viša razina anksioznosti (t=1,63; p=0,053). Rezultati regresijske analize ukazuju na statistički značajan učinak neuroticizma na izraženost simptoma depresivnosti (B=2,52, p<0,001) i anksioznosti (B=3,09 p<0,001) kod studenata. Osobina ličnosti otvorenost prema iskustvima doprinosi većem stresu studenata (B=0,1, p<0,001). Sjedilački način života utječe na pojavu anksioznosti (B=0,001, p<0,05). ZAKLJUČAK: Prema dobivenim rezultatima možemo zaključiti da neuroticizam doprinosi pojavi simptoma anksioznosti i depresivnosti, otvorenost prema iskustvima većem stresu, dok sjedilački način života doprinosi višoj anksioznosti studenata.
