Course and Prognosis of Complex Trauma

- Adverse Childhood Experiences in the first 18 years of life 10 questions related to parental violence, household dysfunction, abuse, and neglect - *Individuals with ACE scores of 6 or higher exhibited a shorter lifespan of almost 20 years compared to ACE scores of 0* - Increased probability to develop cancer, heart disease, diabetes, liver disease, and strokes were associated with depression, alcoholism, drug use, obesity, smoking, sexual promiscuity, and domestic violence - Neurobiologic damage and resiliency factors will affect course and prognosis - Trauma contributes to changes in the chemistry and structures of the brain - Resiliency is the ability of an individual to recover from adverse or traumatic events - Working executive function and exposure to positive praise, nurturing parenting, maternal mental health, consistent home routines and healthy self-care skills, and parents' understanding of trauma

Substance-Related Disorders (10 Classes of Drugs)

- Alcohol - Caffeine - Cannabis - Hallucinogens - Inhalants - Opioids - Sedatives, hypnotics, and anxiolytics - Stimulants - Tobacco - Other substances and non substance (gambling)

Stimulants

- Amphetamines, methamphetamine and cocaine; more common with 12-25 year olds - Can be used for ADHD - Meth and coke are always illicit - Cocaine can lead to severe paranoia and poses a higher risk for a serious overdose

Sedatives, hypnotics, and anxiolytics

- Benzos, Nonbenzo sleep meds, barbiturates - Used in surgery - They have a higher risk of overdose and are not prescribed for anxiety and sleep

Caffeine

- Children/adolescents at risk for intoxication - *Most consumed mind altering substance globally* - Children and adolescents are actually at risk for intoxication from caffeine due to their low body weights and the consumption of soft drinks include restlessness, insomnia, disorganized thinking, excessive energy - Can have withdrawal symptoms

Complex Trauma

- Chronic exposure to *multiple traumatic incidents* that occur within a relational system, often in early childhood, which impact on development and self-awareness - Directly or through observing relational violence, or be the absence of safe caregiving - Given the relational nature of this early trauma, the formation of a *secure attachment is severely compromised.* - Many aspects of a child's healthy physical and mental development rely on this primary source of safety and stability.

- Taking meds, managing stress, managing nutrition, and using person care devices - Safety awareness and concerns due to the individual's use that will impact all of these areas

Incidence and Prevalence of Complex Trauma

- The majority (92%) of maltreated children are victimized by one or both parents - Children less than 1 are most vulnerable to maltreatment. - Nearly 61% of maltreated children were victims of neglect, and nearly 71% of all child fatalities were due to neglect. - Mothers are more likely than fathers to be perpetrators of neglect; males are more likely than females to be perpetrators of sexual abuse - Girls are more likely to experience sexual abuse, emotional abuse, and neglect - Boys are more likely to experience physical trauma and have a higher fatality rate

Impact Substance Abuse on Occupational Performance: Education and Work

- Truancy/absenteeism, tardiness, accidents, poor performance, lack of volition, poor follow through - Employment may not be pursued due to possible failed drug tests

Alcohol- Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs)

- When women use alcohol during pregnancy, putting their children at risk for physical, mental, behavioral, and learning disorders - *MOST PREVENTABLE cause of developmental disabilities in children* - Delirium tremens occur in approximately 5% of people with chronic alcohol disorders who terminate their drinking (can lead to death)

Incidence and Prevalence of Substance Abuse

- Young adults (18-25) use illicit drugs at the highest rate - Alcohol and illicit drug dependence among male and female youths is almost the same - Whites experience the highest risk for alcohol use disorders - Underserved people of color face more discrimination, stronger legal consequences, and increased incarceration when they use drugs recreationally than do Caucasian youth - High prevalence of co-occurring mental health disorders (Depression, Bipolar disorder, PTSD, Personality disorder)

Risk Factors Related to Complex Trauma

- Young or single parents - Less than high school education - Dysfunctional home life - Adults with psych disorders (Depression and bipolar disorder) - Unrealistic expectations of infant/child development - Perpetrator's childhood (80% of offenders were abused themselves) - Substance abuse - Lack of family support systems - Children who are overly fussy or have chronic conditions, diseases, or disabilities - Trigger events - Poverty - Difficulty bonding with newborns - Parental criminal activity - Multiple nonbiological, transient caregivers in the home - Age of the child (under the age of one are at the most risk) - Adopted and foster children

Factors that explain the origins of substance-related disorders

1. *Biological and genetics* - Dopamine reward pathway has changed - Prefrontal cortex becomes impaired - Variety of genes that makes a person vulnerable to substance abuse, like alcoholism 2. *Temperament* - Difficulty with self regulation - Psychological - Classical conditioning - Drinking and drug use can be linked to a person, location, or type of day 3. *Social cognitive theory* - Young users learn substance use behaviors from observing and imitating what others are doing 4. *Sociocultural and environmental* - There is relationship between alcohol and drug use and family peer and social relationships - Peers (from mid to late adolescents) - Availability of cheap substances for coping 5. *Age* - College age and older adults are most at risk for drinking - Males from 18-25

Pharmacological criteria includes:

1. *Tolerance*-requiring increased amounts of the substance in order to get the desired effect or a significantly reduced effect when usual dosage is consumed 2. *Withdrawal*- syndrome that occurs when blood or tissue concentrations decline in a person who has used heavily, which make him or her more likely to consume again to relieve symptoms

Signs and Symptoms of Complex Trauma

7 Domains of impairment - *Attachment and Relationships*- Children that have experiences complex trauma are at much higher risk for insecure attachment patterns (avoidance, ambivalent, and disorganized) - *Physical health*: Body and Brain- Children often live in a chronic fear of stress, altering the brain - *Emotional Responses*- Alexithymia (ones impaired capacity to describe emotions or bodily states like recognizing signs of hunger or that they need to go to the bathroom - *Dissociation*- Predominant attribute of someone that has experienced trauma. It is a protective response to trauma (freeze response and detachment) - *Maladaptive Behavior* - *Cognition*: Thinking and Learning - *Self-concept and Future Orientation*- Many children feel unsuccessful, powerless, helpless, incompetent, and unlovable

Medication-induced Disorders

OTs need to be aware of medications that can *cause CNS side effects because the cognitive, behavioral, and physical symptoms that they cause may occur in any acute, rehabilitation, and community practice site* - Antipsychotics can result in related movement disorders - Evidence-based intervention strongly suggests the combined used of medications and psychosocial support for the most effective treatment of substance-related disorders
