Most addictive substances;

2. Cocaine
3. Nicotine
4. Barbiturates
5. Alcohol
Two-factor theory (Mowrer); tries to explain onset and maintenance of anxiety
1. Classical conditioning; causing onset of anxiety something happens and leads to
distress causing anxiety for event/object etc
2. Operant conditioning; causing maintenance avoidance leads to relief of negative
emotions
Explains why exposure is helpful; not getting relief by avoidance, but experiencing
relief after confrontation

Week 2 – Chronic somatic disease
>> Relation between chronic disease and mental health problems:

More in women
- Ethnical differences; culture, expression of mental health, help seeking, social
support and biological differences
Less often in Asians
> Bidirectional relationship; both mental- or somatic disease may cause the other
o Chronic disease causes 2-3x higher risk on depression
o Depression causes 3x higher change on chronic disease
, > Comorbid risk factors; risk factors for both developing mental- and somatic disease
e.g. childhood adversity, stress, low SES, health behaviours
Consequences of comorbidity; vicious circle, longer recovery, higher symptom burden, more
functional impairment, lower quality of life, higher costs, premature mortality
Integrated care as solution; focus on total person on different levels, both mental and
physical on prevention, diagnoses and treatment
HIV and depression; high comorbidity due to stigma, neurobiological changes and depression
as higher risk on getting HIV (different sexual orientation, drug use etc)
Mental health in refugees; due to lots of stressors, causing anxiety, PTSD and depression
Stress-sensitization; impact increases with number of stress stimuli, more sensitive to
stressors
Hormesis; adaptive responses to moderate exposure and maladaptive responses on high
level exposure (little stress – improvement of performance, much stress – decrease in
performance)
Three hit hypothesis; 1. genetic disposition, 2. early life environment/experiences and 3.
later life environment/experiences
> e.g. person who grew up in violent environment, will do better in violent
environment later in life then person who grew up in ‘normal’ environment due to resilience
Allostatic load; homeostasis recovery after stressor – more frequent stressors, leads to
higher homeostatic baseline
Kindling; threshold (e.g. depression) becomes smaller per episode
