Abstract

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and probabilities of comorbidities between self-reported PTSD and smoking, alcohol binge drinking and substance use disorders (SUDs) from a national Canadian sample. Data were taken from the Statistics Canada Public Use Microdata File of the 2012 Canadian Community Health Survey–Mental Health (n = 17,311). The prevalence of (a) smoking, (b) alcohol binge drinking and (c) SUDs was estimated among those with a PTSD diagnosis versus those without a PTSD diagnosis. After controlling for potential socioeconomic and mental health covariates, self-reported PTSD acted as a significant predictor for membership in the heaviest smoking, alcohol, and substance use categories. Individuals self-reporting a diagnosis of PTSD have a significantly higher likelihood of engaging in smoking and alcohol binge drinking, and are more likely to meet criteria for SUDs than individuals not reporting a PTSD diagnosis.
