This research project invited 23 people
with substance use and mental health issues to speak about their experiences of
youth alcohol and other drugs (AOD) and mental health services, and to share their ideas about how to make these services more effective.
This article draws on a research project which employed a sequential mixed - method approach
with a sample of fifteen year olds (n = 95) as a pilot study to guide the development of a large scale qualitative study investigating
youth substance use patterns, processes, settings and drug transitions within the south east region of Ireland (Van Hout 2009a - d; 2010).

RESULTS: Independent of race, socioeconomic status, absent parent, special education status,
substance use, and emotional distress,
youth with co-occurring chronic physical and mental conditions (n = 4099) had significantly higher odds of self - harm (odds ratio [OR]: 2.5 [99 % confidence interval (CI): 2.3 — 2.8), suicidal ideation (OR: 2.5 [99 % CI: 2.3 — 2.8), and suicide attempts (OR: 3.5 [99 % CI: 3.1 — 3.9]-RRB- than healthy peers (n = 106 967), as did those
with chronic mental conditions alone (n = 8752).
Research examining
substance abuse among
youth with LD remains inconclusive.13 Beitchman et al11 assessed 264 Canadian children for LD at ages 12 and 19, and for psychiatric and
substance use disorders at age 19.
Of note, although at 6 and 12 months there was no intervention effect on
substance use, at 18 months drug
use was lower among intervention compared
with control
youths.13 In summary, this quasi-experimental (post hoc) study design provided some data suggesting that 1 or more boosters might result in a more sustained intervention impact and might result in broader intervention effect than is found from a more traditional, basic, face - to - face intervention.
Two findings are consistent within the recent research literature: 1)
youth with pre-existing problems are at higher risk for
substance use disorders, and 2)
substance use plays a role in the onset and exacerbation of other problems.
The concept of resilience and closely related research regarding protective factors provides one avenue for addressing mental well - being that is suggested to have an impact on adolescent
substance use.8 — 17 Resilience has been variably defined as the process of, capacity for, or outcome of successful adaptation in the context of risk or adversity.9, 10, 12, 13, 18 Despite this variability, it is generally agreed that a range of individual and environmental protective factors are thought to: contribute to an individual's resilience; be critical for positive
youth development and protect adolescents from engaging in risk behaviours, such as
substance use.19 — 22 Individual or internal resilience factors refer to the personal skills and traits of young people (including self - esteem, empathy and self - awareness).23 Environmental or external resilience factors refer to the positive influences within a young person's social environment (including connectedness to family, school and community).23 Various studies have separately reported such factors to be negatively associated
with adolescent
use of different types of
substances, 12, 16, 24 — 36 for example, higher self - esteem16, 29, 32, 35 is associated
with lower likelihood of tobacco and alcohol
use.

youth services scheme for young people at risk of
substance misuse in socially and economically disadvantaged communities; • Expansion of drug and alcohol addiction services, including residential services; • Recruitment of 4 Clinical Nurse Specialists and 2 Young Persons Counsellors to complement HSE multi-disciplinary teams for under 18s; • Recruitment of 7 additional drug - liaison midwives to support pregnant women

youth with complex needs will be able to successfully remain in their home, school, and community and have the resiliency to avoid future
substance use.

Further, up to 40 % of
youths with an AUD / SUD also meet the criteria for at least one other comorbid psychiatric disorder [7], and 25 % of adolescents aged 11 — 17 who are admitted into inpatient psychiatric hospitals meet the criteria for comorbid mental health and
substance use disorders [8].
Youths of both genders
with SUDs are also very likely to have co-morbid conduct disorder [24, 25] and individuals
with conduct disorder on average initiate
substance use at an early age [26].
We chose this validated measure of externalizing behavior, as opposed to other broader measures, as it takes into account those specific externalizing traits commonly comorbid
with SUD (see Introduction, A Focus on
Youths with Child / Adolescent - Onset
Substance Use Problems).
Eight months after baseline,
youth whose parents participated in the program, compared
with control
youth, reported increased parental monitoring, positive racial socialization, and positive self - concept, as well as decreased conduct problems and self - reported
substance use.

youth development
with the prevention of typical problem behaviors such as
substance use, precocious intercourse and disruptive or delinquent behavior.
