“…Recent studies have found important linkages between smoking and certain anxiety disorders (Feldner, Babson, & Zvolensky, 2007a;Morissette, Tull, Gulliver, Kamholz, & Zimering, 2007;Patton, Carlin, Coffey, Wolfe, Hibbert, & Bowes, 1998; Zvolensky, Feldner, LeenFeldner, & McLeish, 2005 (Beckham et al, 1995;Breslau et al, 2003;Buckley et al, 2004;Feldner et al, 2007a). Recent controlled work supports the contention that PTSD is associated with earlier relapse compared to persons with no psychopathology (Zvolensky, Gibson et al, in press).…”

“…Similarly, smoking rates are significantly greater among persons with, compared to those without, PTSD (Acierno et al, 2000;Acierno, Kilpatrick, Resnick, Saunders, & Best, 1996;Beckham et al, 1995;Buckley, Mozley, Bedard, Dewulf, & Greif, 2004). Investigations also have found that exposure to traumatic life events, particularly for those individuals with a PTSD diagnosis, is associated with an increase in smoking behavior (e.g., increasing the amount of cigarettes smoked per day; Breslau, Davis, & Schultz, 2003;Joseph, Yule, Williams, & Hodgkinson, 1993;Koenen et al, 2005;Perkonigg, Kessler, Storz, & Wittchen, 2000). Although less is empirically known about the role of PTSD in cessation success per se, scholars have suggested that this clinical condition may (theoretically) be associated with poor cessation outcome (Beckham et al, 1995;Breslau et al, 2003;Buckley et al, 2004;Feldner et al, 2007a).…”

The present investigation compared 123 community-recruited daily smokers with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), panic disorder (PD), nonclinical panic attacks (PA), or no current Axis I psychopathology (controls; C) in terms of nicotine dependence, smoking rate, quit history, severity of symptoms during past quit attempts, and motivation for and expectancies about smoking. No differences were observed between groups in regard to smoking rate or nicotine dependence. The PTSD group reported making more lifetime quit attempts than the other groups, and the PTSD and PD groups perceived more severe symptoms during past quit attempts. The PD and PTSD groups reported greater motivation to smoke to reduce negative affect. Individuals with PTSD endorsed a stronger expectation that smoking would alleviate negative mood states and would produce negative consequences. Overall, results suggest that smokers with PD or PTSD differ from other smoking groups in a number of clinically significant ways.

There is an increasing empirical recognition that tobacco use and dependence are elevated among those with psychopathology compared to those without psychiatric conditions (Kalman, Morissette, & George, 2005). For example, persons with, relative to those without, psychiatric disorders are approximately twice as likely to be current smokers (Lasser et al., 2000). Moreover, it is estimated that although smokers with psychiatric disorders represent approximately 20% of persons in the United States (U.S.), they consume over 40% of the cigarettes in the nation (Lasser et al., 2000). Such high rates of smoking among those with psychiatric disorders may play a clinically significant role in the high rates of diagnostic comorbidity and mortality observed in people with psychiatric disorders (Kalman et al., 2005).

“…It has been suggested that ongoing exposure to stress or traumatic abuse increases susceptibility to substance abuse (Breslau, Davis, & Schultz, 2003;Piazza & Le Moal, 1996;Simpson & Miller, 2002). One explanation is that the anxiety-reducing effects of substances, which alter the brain's behavioral inhibition system (Walker et al, 1991) and affect reward systems of the brain (e.g.…”

“…Associations between PTSD and substance use disorders have been reported in several studies (Kandel et al, 1997;Breslau et al, 1994Breslau et al, , 2003Breslau et al, , 1991. US data show that 60% of help-seeking PTSD patients smoke cigarettes, compared to 23% of the general population, and also that patients with PTSD are more likely to be heavy smokers (Beckham, 1999).…”

Tobacco usage interacts with postdisaster psychopathology on circadian salivary cortisol

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) have been associated with increased rates of tobacco usage as well as with dysregulations of the hypothalamus -pituitary -adrenal (HPA) axis. At the same time tobacco also affects the HPA axis. This paper examines the relationships between PTSD, posttraumatic MDD, smoking and levels of circadian cortisol 2 -3 years postdisaster. Subjects were survivors of the Enschede fireworks disaster. The sample consisted of 38 healthy survivors, 40 subjects with PTSD, and 17 subjects with posttraumatic MDD. The Composite International Diagnostic Interview was used to determine mental disorders in accordance with DSM-IV criteria. Salivary cortisol samples were collected at home immediately upon awakening, 30 min after awakening, at noon, and at 10 p.m. Quantity of smoking was measured through self-report. The results of the study show that salivary cortisol concentrations were higher in smoking subjects. Survivors with MDD following the disaster had a flatter diurnal cortisol curve than subjects with PTSD or healthy survivors. In survivors with PTSD and healthy individuals the usual dynamic pattern of increase in cortisol past awakening was present, while we did not observe this in posttraumatic MDD. These survivors with MDD tended to use more tobacco per day, and the cortisol group differences could only be revealed when we adjusted for quantity of smoking. Smoking, which may be an important palliative coping style in dealing with posttraumatic arousal symptoms, seems to mediate the relationship between traumatic stress and the HPA-axis. D
