Because of this urgent mental health crisis, it is important to understand the factors associated with suicide risk and depression. Substance use is one factor that has been previously linked to increased suicide risk. Here, we studied the relationship between suicidality, depression, and substance use. In a sample of youth with depression, those with problematic substance use tended to have increased suicidal ideation or history of attempts, be older, and have more problems with school functioning compared to those without problematic use. However, problematic substance use did not impact the relationship between severity of depression and suicidality. These findings show an increased suicide risk in youth with problematic substance use, highlighting the need to identify and intervene in youth substance use.\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EArmstrong, G.

We sought to gain a wider perspective by considering substance use of any kind, psychiatric symptoms, and demographic features together. Advanced grouping techniques identified three patterns of past-year substance use in depressed youth: non-use; moderate likelihood of using alcohol, nicotine, and cannabis; and high likelihood of using all substances. We then considered whether any demographic or psychiatric factors might predict substance use group. Compared to non-users, moderate and high likelihood users tended to be older. Youth in the high likelihood group were more likely to have a substance use disorder, ADHD, and higher suicidality. These findings suggest universal screening for substance use among depressed youth would help increase early intervention and customized care.\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EClark, S.
