“…A US analysis using the Addiction Severity Index (ASI) found that nearly a fourth of men (28%) with comorbid mental health and substance use disorders reported a sexual abuse history at baseline, had elevated drug use composite scores, more days with drug use problems, and were more troubled by their drug problems relative to those without a history of abuse (Makin-Byrd et al, 2011). Similarly, a Swedish study suggested strong relationships between psychiatric problems and sexual abuse among men assessed for substance use disorder; ASI mental health composite scores were associated with a 14-fold increased likelihood of having experienced sexual abuse (Lundgren et al, 2013).…”

Objective: Experiences of trauma, specifically sexual abuse, have been linked to both mental health and substance use disorders. This study used 14 years of Swedish health registry data to select a sample of adult men who reported frequent opioid use and assessed if those with a self-reported history of sexual abuse had a higher likelihood of hospitalization for a mental health disorder. Methods: A Swedish longitudinal (2003–2017) registry study linked Addiction Severity Index (ASI) assessments completed with individuals who sought treatment for substance use disorders with data on hospitalizations for mental health disorders, and assessed associations with self-reported histories of sexual abuse among men who reported sustained and frequent use of opioids (n = 1862). Cox regression methods tested associations and controlled for age, and the 7 ASI composite scores: family and social relationships, employment, alcohol use, drug use, legal, physical health, and mental health. Results: The ASI composite score for mental health (hazard ratio [HR] 16.6, P < 0.001) and a history of sexual abuse (HR 1.93, P < 0.001) were associated with an elevated risk of future mental health hospitalization. Conclusion: Both the ASI composite scores for mental health and self-reported history of sexual abuse reflected complex needs among men who used opioids and increased risk for mental health hospitalization. Treatment providers should strive to provide integrated care and address the negative aspects of victimization.

“…Contextual factors such as the decreased ability to assess risk when impaired by drugs, dependence on sexual partners for drug supply, coercion from an abusive partner to use drugs, and being forced to have sex in exchange for drugs or money, have all shown an increased risk for interpersonal trauma (18,(22)(23)(24)(25). Notably, the co-occurrence of opioid use and interpersonal trauma is marked by worsened clinical consequences associated with opioid use (e.g., exacerbations of psychological distress, increased opioid use), increased social consequences (e.g., legal, nancial, and/or family problems), and poorer opioid use disorder treatment outcomes (e.g., higher rates of treatment drop out, more missed treatment appointments) (26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33).…”

Interpersonal violence and opioid use disorder are significant and intersecting public health concerns in the United States. The current study evaluated the consequences associated with opioid use as a function of history of interpersonal trauma, specifically physical and sexual violence. Participants were 84 trauma-exposed individuals recruited from the community who use opioids (M age = 43.5 50% men; 55% white). Whereas no significant differences emerged in the consequences of opioid use based on a history of physical violence, individuals with a history of sexual violence demonstrated higher levels of impulsive consequences of opioid use compared to individuals without a history of sexual violence. These data highlight the importance of considering the role of sexual violence in the context of opioid use disorder treatment.
