- W564946143 abstract "This study followed a grounded theory methodology in investigating the relationshipbetween psychosis and cocaine dependency; which is a specific dual-diagnosispopulation that has been under-researched. To the researcher's knowledge, this isthe first study to use qualitative methodology to explore the link between psychosisand cocaine.Eight participants were recruited from an inner-London substance misuse service. Allparticipants were primary cocaine users (or recently abstinent ex-users), the majorityof whom normally smoked crack-cocaine, and all additionally experienced psychosis.Semi-structured interviews were completed, focusing on what participants believedcaused their mental health difficulties; what participants' views were on why theybegan using cocaine; and how participants believed their drug use has affected theirmental health.From analysis of participants' interviews a model was created that provides anexplanation for cocaine use in this group. This replicates psycho-social aspects ofprevious models of dependency, but also offers new contributions to understandingthis specific group. One of the key findings from this study was that cocaine is notreported to be a causal factor in developing psychosis, while for some, cannabiswas. Another finding was that people self-medicate with cocaine, both to improvemood and to help manage voices. Another specific factor in the maintenance ofdependency was exploitation by drug dealers.Participants' relationships with family members and professionals were explored. Itseems that misunderstanding of participants' substance misuse difficulties was asignificant reason for break downs in such relationships. The study thereforerecommends more training for mental health professionals in collaborativeapproaches (such as motivational interviewing) and more involvement and supportfor families; so as to better engage this complex group." @default.
