TIP 50: Addressing Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors in Substance Abuse Treatment
Research consistently shows a high prevalence of suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts among persons with substance abuse problems who are in treatment. TIP 50, Addressing Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors in Substance Abuse Treatment is designed to assist substance abuse counselors in working with adult clients who may be suicidal, and will help clinical supervisors and administrators support the work of substance abuse counselors. Part I, for counselors, provides the "what" and the "why" and the "how" of working with clients in substance abuse treatment with suicidal thoughts and behaviors. It covers background information about suicide and substance use disorders, including risk factors and warning signs for suicide and a four-step process for addressing suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Part 2, for administrators, clarifies why program administrators should be concerned about this clinical issue. Part 3 is for clinical supervisors, interested counselors, and administrators and consists of three sections: an analysis of the available literature, an annotated bibliography and a general bibliography. Part 3 is available only on line at www.kap.samhsa.gov.
The NSDUH Report May 21, 2009: Substance Use among Women During Pregnancy and Following Childbirth
Combined 2002 to 2007 data show that past month alcohol use among women aged 18 to 44 was highest for those who were not pregnant and did not have children living in the household (63.0 percent) but comparatively low for women in the first trimester of pregnancy (19.0 percent), and even lower for those in the second (7.8 percent) or third trimester (6.2 percent); similar patterns were seen with marijuana, cigarette, and binge alcohol use. Data suggest that use of these substances increases following childbirth; for example, marijuana use was higher for recent mothers with children under 3 months old in the household (3.8 percent) than for women in the third trimester of pregnancy (1.4 percent), suggesting resumption of use among mothers in the first 3 months after childbirth.
The NSDUH Report May 28, 2009: Parental Involvement in Preventing Youth Substance Use

The majority of youths indicated that their parents were involved in their day-to-day activities; for example, 86.2 percent said their parents always or sometimes let them know when they had done a good job, and 80.9 percent of those who were in school said their parents always or sometimes provided help with homework. Youths' perceptions of parental disapproval of their substance use as well as parental involvement generally decreased with age; for example, 95.8 percent of 12 or 13 year olds compared with 93.4 percent of 14 or 15 year olds and 87.4 percent of 16 or 17 year olds thought their parents would strongly disapprove of their smoking one or more packs of cigarettes per day.
