Abstract

Comorbility between licit and illicit drugs and personality disorders is studied in a sample of 320 adults who attended specialized addictions service. There is a predominance of single-male participants with a starting age at 20 on drug consumption while consultation begins around 35. Fifty percent of the consultations correspond to alcohol in both sexes. The more frequent illicit drugs were marijuana and cocaine. Gender differences were found. Firstly, the use of sedatives in women and of marijuana in men, and, secondly different personality profiles. The more predominant personality disorders were the ones of the cluster B. The consumption of illicit drugs is associated with the borderline and antisocial personality disorders. In men, this was found concurrently with narcissistic personality disorder and in women, with the dependent and histrionic personality disorders.
