“…This study revealed that the caregiving burden was associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms. The similar findings were consistent with many prior studies that demonstrated that stress in family relationships arises when caregivers provide care for a family member with substance misuse (Li and others, 2013;Soni, Upadhyay and Jain, 2017;Niazi and others, 2005;Pradhan and others, 2012;Marcon and others, 2012). The stress included worry, anger, guilt, shame, financial strain, physical effects of stress, and a diminished quality of life and hopefulness.…”

Objective: Opioid dependence syndrome impacts patients and affects their caregivers. In India, caregivers have a strong bond with patients and play a significant role in their treatment. However, the caregivers suffer adverse effects like violence, anxiety, depression symptoms, and other psychological stresses due to the opioid use of those they care for. Spouses of opioid users especially experience a greater rate of co-dependency (excessive emotional or psychological dependency on their partner) and family burden. AIM: This study measured the co-dependency, depression, anxiety, and family burden and their association among caregivers of patients with opioid dependence syndrome. Materials and methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among 132 caregivers of patients with opioid dependence syndrome at a tertiary care unit in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. This was using the MINI 6.0 (Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview) for co-morbidities, Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale (SFCD), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ9) for depression, Generalised Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7) and Family Burden Interview Schedule. The data was collected and analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16. Results:The study demonstrated that caregivers of opioid dependence syndrome patients reported severe co-dependency (50%), severe anxiety (75.6%), and moderately severe depression (54.5%). All participants reported a high burden (100%). A positive correlation was found between variables such as co-dependency and anxiety, co-dependency and depression, co--dependency and family burden, anxiety and depression, anxiety and family burden, and depression and family burden. A significant association was found among variables like co-dependency and anxiety, depression, and family burden which is the following hypothesis. Conclusion:The present study illustrated that all the caregivers experienced anxiety, depression, co-dependency, and family burden. Preventive measures need to address these issues of the caregivers during the treatment of patients with opioid use disorder.

Introduction: Marriage is the significant life event in a person. Marriage in Indian society has significant role and acts has a significant stigmatization factor if unmarried or separate or divorced. Marital pathology is considered the most stressful in comparison to other life events in an individual's life. When psychiatric illness is taken into consideration, it has a substantial role along with other factors in causing/worsening or relapse of the illness. Methodology:The results of the various studies in Indian context are being attempted to be compiled. Search was done through EMBASE, PsycINFO and PUBMED.Result: Epidemiological data supports the evidence that married individuals have less chances to have psychiatric illness. Epidemiological data supports the evidence that married individuals have less chances to have psychiatric illness. Positive correlation is illustrated with marital adjustment problems and anxiety/depressive psychopathology.When severe mental illnesses are compared worse marriage outcome is reported in schizophrenia patients. Conclusion:It has been understood from the studies done so far that marriage acts as both protecting factor and predisposing/precipitating factor for the causation of the psychiatric illness. Still huge area related to marital problems (legal issues, marital separation, divorce, infertility, intimacy issues) in individuals and their spouse is unexplored.

Objectives: Spouses of patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and opioid use disorder (OUD) suffer from burden, stigma, and low quality of life (QoL). The present study assessed the impact of stigma and burden on QoL among wives of patients with AUD and OUD. Methods: 90 wives of in-patients with severe AUD (n=54) and OUD (n=36) as per DSM-5 were assessed using socio-demographic pro forma, WHO QoL Bref Hindi, Hindi family stigma scale and Family Burden Interview Schedule. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences Inc., Chicago, IL, version 25.0 for Windows was used for analysis. Appropriate statistical tests including Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests of normality, Mann–Whitney test, and Kruskal–Wallis test were used. To see the relationship between two variables Pearson Correlation coefficient was calculated. All statistical tests were two-sided and performed at a significance level of α=.05. Results: Majority of the wives were more than 30 years old, literate and belonged to rural areas. Higher financial burden reduced overall QoL (p=0.001**), satisfaction with physical health (0.006**), psychological health (p=0.032*), and environment (p=0.001**). There was a negative correlation of satisfaction with environment with disruption of family interaction (p=0.003**), burden on mental health (p=0.001**), overall burden (p=0.000**), and discrimination (p=0.032*). Conclusion: QoL of spouses of patients with AUD and OUD reduces significantly due to stigma and burden. Enhancing QoL of spouses should be a part of management of AUD and OUD.
