About this dataset

This dataset provides incredibly important insight into the prevalence of psychiatric comorbidity, or psychological conditions that occur at the same time, among patients receiving treatment at addiction assistance units in Galicia, Spain. By examining twenty-three-hundred patients across twenty-one treatment centers and harnessing information from sixtyfour healthcare professionals, COPSIAD has created an invaluable resource for exploring how mental disorders impact and interact with substance abuse/dependency. The results demonstrate that overhalf of all people undergoing assistance for addictive behaviors suffer from some type of mental disorder — be it an Axis I or II diagnosis. In particular, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, borderline personality disorder (BPD), and antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) are found to be among the most common comorbid conditions that these individuals face. Accurately understanding this data helps us gain a deeper comprehension into an otherwise surprisingly complex landscape — providing a path forward in finding new treatments and solutions to help these patients lead healthier lives
