“…35 Another study found that patients with GAD are five times more likely to smoke than those who do not have the anxiety disorder. 36 Our sample showed a high prevalence (29.3%) of smoking among individuals with anxiety disorder, two times higher than in the general population (15.1%). 37 Like tobacco, alcohol is also often used as self-medication to reduce anxiety.…”

Objective: To assess the prevalence of anxiety disorders and associated factors in young adults. Methods: Cross-sectional population-based study of individuals between the ages of 18 and 24 years randomly selected from 89 census-based sectors to ensure an adequate sample size. Household selection within the sectors was performed according to a systematic sampling process. Anxiety disorders were assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). The final sample comprised 1,560 young adults. Results: Of the participants who were diagnosed with anxiety disorders, 12.3% had agoraphobia, 9.7% had generalised anxiety disorder, 4.0% had social phobia, 3.3% had obsessive-compulsive disorder, 2.5% had panic disorder, and 2.1% had post-traumatic stress disorder; only 23.8% had received any previous treatment. Anxiety disorders were associated with sex, socioeconomic status, psychiatric problems in parents, alcohol abuse, and tobacco use. Conclusions: The identification of factors associated with anxiety disorders in young people enables us to develop intervention strategies. Anxiety disorders are not only highly prevalent but are also associated with significant functional impairment, significant reductions in quality of life, lower productivity, and higher rates of comorbidities.

“…Vários autores pesquisaram a associação entre o tabagismo e os transtornos de ansiedade [12][13][14][15] , o mesmo ocorrendo com relação à depressão [15][16][17][18] ; no entanto, os mesmos não realizaram a avaliação da associação dos sintomas de ansiedade ou depressão com a gravidade da dependência da nicotina nos diferentes gêneros.…”

Resultados: Nas mulheres, os sintomas de ansiedade (F = 9,691; p < 0,01) e depressão (F = 16,23; p < 0,01) apresentaram associação com a gravidade da dependência da nicotina. Entre os homens, apenas os sintomas de ansiedade (F = 7,219; p = 0,001) estiveram associados com o grau de dependência de nicotina. Conclusão: As tabagistas mais graves têm mais sintomas de ansiedade e depressão, enquanto os tabagistas mais graves apresentam mais ansiedade. Estes achados apontam para a importância de avaliar esses tipos de sintomas ao serem tratados tabagistas no Brasil. Descritores: Tabagismo, ansiedade, depressão. AbstractIntroduction: Smoking often presents comorbid anxiety and depression, disorders that are more frequent in women. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between severity of nicotine dependence and anxiety and depression symptoms in both male and female smokers. Method: A cross-sectional study was performed using a convenience sample of 475 smokers from the general population. The instruments used were Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence, Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, and a social and demographic record sheet. Results: In women, anxiety symptoms (F = 9.691; p < 0.01) and depression (F = 16.23; p < 0.01) were associated with severity of nicotine dependence. In men, only anxiety symptoms (F = 7.219; p = 0.001) were associated with severity of nicotine dependence. Conclusion: Women with severe nicotine dependence have more anxiety and depression symptoms, while severe male smokers only showed more anxiety. The results demonstrated the importance of evaluating these symptoms in the treatment of smokers in Brazil.
