Background
Complicated grief causes clearly functional disor-
ders, and grief signs lasts at least a month after six months going
through unfortunate incident. Researches about grief and compli-
cated grief, requires a deeper understanding in etiology of creation
and several therapeutic procedures. In this study we want to
evaluate the relationship between the use of methadone and com-
plicated grief.
Methods
Among methadone consumers in cessation drug cen-
ters in Mashhad in 2015 a sample of 285 person’s were chosen
randomly to answer ICG test (Inventory of Complicated Grief) and
demographic questionnaire. Analysis performed by SPSS18.
Findings
The results showed that 35% of methadone consumers
had grief. Complicated grief is more frequent in men than women
(
P
= 0.01), and more in middle-aged people than the other ages
(
P
= 0.002). The most frequent complicated grief among those with
postgraduate diploma and the lowest rate is among MA (
P
= 0.003).
People who have lost their first-grade relatives have more com-
plicated grief than those who lost the other ones (
P
= 0.000). The
individuals who have lost someone due to disease are more fre-
quent than those who have lost someone suddenly (
P
= 0.00).
Among the ICG test questions, hallucinations (seeing deceased) has
the lowest frequency, and tendency to the places and things related
to the deceased, has the greatest frequency.
Conclusion
Finding of this research showed that, Men, people
with postgraduate diploma and people who have lost their first-
grade relatives have experienced more complicated grief. Gender
of deceased and marital status do not effect on the frequency of
complicated grief.

Introduction
Performed studies indicate association between
drug abuse and other mental disorders. Mental disorders could be
effective in response to treatment and also, accession of recurrence
process in addiction treatment course.
Methods and materials
This research is causal – comparative and
of cross-sectional type was performed in 2014 on 200 drug abusers
under methadone maintenance treatment (in two groups, with
relapse in treatment process and without relapse) in drug reha-
bilitation centers of Kerman city. Questionnaire which includes
demographic features and BPRS test was completed. Data were
processed by suitable statistical methods via SPSS20 and SAS9.1
software.
Findings
Results obtained from the research showed that the
acquired scores ´average from BPRS test is more in relapsing
group (
P
< 0.0001). Subscales of somatic concern (
P
= 0.030),
anxiety (
P
< 0.0001), depressive mood (
P
< 0.0001), guilt feeling
(
P
= 0.003), hostility (
P
< 0.0001), grandiosity(
P
= 0.008), suspicious-
ness (
P
= 0.024), hallucination (
P
= 0.009), blunted affect (
P
= 0.030),
tension (
P
= 0.012), uncooperativeness (
P
= 0.011), excitement
(
P
= 0.038) and emotional withdrawal (
P
= 0.019) in two abuser
groups had significant difference (more in relapsing group). No
significant difference was observed between subscales of unusual
thought content, disorientation, conceptual disorganization, man-
nerism and posturing and motor retardation in two groups
(
P
> 0.05). In patients with more relapse in treatment process, score
of BPRS is higher (
P
< 0.0001).
Conclusion
Findings of this study showed that intensity of psychi-
atric disorders in relapsing drug users is more than non-relapsing
users and with growth of disorders intensity, the number of recur-
rence increases.

Introduction
Changing cultural values and increasing economic
stress are leading to initiation into substance use. Despite religious
and legal constraints onMuslims against the consumption of drugs,
drug addiction is a widespread problem and is destroying the lives
of many individuals and families, in Tunisia.
Objectives
To examine the socio-demographic characteristics of
Tunisian addicts and to identify the drugs commonly used.
Methods
This was a cross-sectional study, which included 200
patients at the addiction treatment center “Aide et Ecoute” in Sfax
(Tunisia). The survey was conducted during the month of January
to September 2014.
Results
Only males were found to get treatment in the addiction
center for various addictions. The mean age was 33.32 years and
the mean age for starting substance use was 17.30 years. More
than half (65.9%) were not married and 59.5% had involvement
with criminal justice. Substance dependence was commonly seen
in poor and middle socioeconomic class. The most common sub-
stance used was buprenorphine (34.8%). There was a significant
relation between buprenorphine consumption and immigration
(
P
= 0.013). Peer pressure was one of the most important factors
for trial of substance in our study.
Conclusion
As the mean age of initiation of substance abuse was
early twenties, in liaison with schools and colleges, some recre-
ational activities can be generated to prevent diversion of youth
towards the devil of drug abuse.
