“…This supports the mutual-maintenance hypothesis (e.g., Stewart & Conrod, 2008b), such that symptoms of anxiety, depression, and ADHD can all be maintained or exacerbated by continued substance use. For example, evidence has suggested that alcohol withdrawal SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS (Norton, Norton, Cox, & Belik, 2008), cigarette smoking (Breslau, Novak, & Kessler, 2004), and cocaine (Aronson & Craig, 1986) use are all potential precipitants of anxiety symptoms and panic attacks (Stewart & Conrod, 2008a). Psychoeducation regarding the longer term maintenance or even exacerbation of their mental health problems by substance misuse can be useful for some comorbid clients in helping them to increase their motivation to remain abstinent.…”

A national U.S. survey found that 23% of the adult population engage in heavy episodic binge drinking at least once a month, 8% currently use illicit drugs, and 25% identify as smokers (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2007). Moreover, 9% ofthe adult population meets the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) criteria for substance dependence or abuse. Similar prevalence rates have been observed in Canada, where 26% of the adult population engage in heavy episodic drinking at least once a month, 14% use illicit drugs (Adlaf, Begin, & Sawka, 2005), and 19% identify as smokers (Heart and Stroke Foundation, 2007). Together these reports suggest that substance misuse and disorders are a widespread problem.Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) ranks among the most effective and widely used treatments for alcohol use disorders (e.g., Finney & Monahan, 1996;Oei, Lim, & Young, 1991). There is also growing support for CBT's efficacy for treating illicit substance use disorders (SUD; e.g., cocaine: Carroll et al., 2004; methamphetamine: Rawson, Gonzales, & Brethen, 2002) and as a smoking cessation approach (e.g., Hall, Munoz, & Reus, 1994). Myriad randomized controlled trials have demonstrated overall support for CBT as comparable to alternative credible psychotherapies, such as 12-step programs and motivational enhancement therapy (e.g., Project MATCH Research 211
