    Background:

    • Substance use disorders (SUDs) are common in adolescence, but some develop severe dependence.
    • SUDs lead to psychosocial stress, physical health issues, and comorbid psychiatric disorders.
    • Personality disorders are a significant comorbidity in adults with SUDs, with limited data in adolescents.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the prevalence of personality pathology in adolescents with SUDs within a psychiatric setting.
    • To explore the association between traumatic childhood experiences and SUDs in this age group.
    • To compare personality pathology levels in adolescents with SUDs to those with eating, stress-related, and somatoform disorders.

    Main Methods:

    • Cross-sectional study of adolescent patients in a psychiatric setting.
