A Study: A CONTROLLED TRIAL OF PSYCHODYNAMIC PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR CO-OCCURRING BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER AND ALCOHOL USE DISORDER

A CONTROLLED TRIAL OF PSYCHODYNAMIC
PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR CO-OCCURRING BORDERLINE
PERSONALITY DISORDER AND ALCOHOL USE DISORDER



I just got a journal study from my friend about personality disorder ang alcohol use disorder.
I'll share you the some part of the article, for the complete article you can asked me.
or just download it.
A randomized controlled trial was conducted to determine whether a manualbased
psychodynamic treatment, labeled dynamic deconstructive psychotherapy
(DDP), would be feasible and effective for individuals with co-occurring borderline
personality disorder (BPD) and alcohol use disorder. Thirty participants
were assessed every 3 months during a year of treatment with either
DDP or treatment as usual (TAU) in the community. DDP participants
showed statistically significant improvement in parasuicide behavior, alcohol
misuse, institutional care, depression, dissociation, and core symptoms of
BPD, and treatment retention was 67% to 73%. Although TAU participants
received higher average treatment intensity, they showed only limited
change during the same period. The results support the feasibility, tolerability,
and efficacy of DDP for the cooccurring subgroup and highlight the
need for further research.

This just the opening part of the journal.
