Caraveo Eduardo Colmenares Medicina prevalence Agoraphobia service use disabilities phobic disorders This report presents the lifetime and 12-month prevalence ofphobic disorders in the adult population of Mexico City as wellas their sociodemographic characteristics, the proportion ofhelp-seekkers and the impediments reported by the affectedsubjects.The study was designed as a multistage household surveyin a representative sample of the adult population aged 18 to65 years old. The basic instrument was an amended versionof CIDI 1.1. The prevalence of the disorders is shown followingthe ICD-10 research diagnostic criteria.The lifetime prevalence of the different phofic disorders inthis population ranged from 2.8% to 2.1%, and was persistent.In general, all phobic anxiety disorders were more frequent inwomen, and the female/male ratio was higher in agoraphobia(3.6:1). In both genders, the specific phobias showed an earlierage of onset. While social and specific phobias usually began,during the middle of the second decade of life, agoraphobiausually appeared in the middle of the third decade. Almost inall cases these disorders caused disabilities. Women soughtmore help than men, specially those with agoraphobia.Nevertheless, it is important to note that only from 10% to 30%of all the affected subjects with some kind of phobic disordersought any kind of help. According to the type of disorder,some differences emerged: Most of those with agoraphobiaand specific phobias seeked help from sorcerers, naturalhealers, priests and religious ministers.In conclusion, although phobic anxiety disorders were lessfrequent than depressive disorders, their persistencethroughout life determines their importance, as well as that oftheir role in the development of psychopathology. Earlydetection and treatment, specially of social and specific phobiasshould be emphasized, as they appear at an earlier age. 2000 artículo científico 0185-3325 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=58252302 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=582 Salud Mental application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Psiquiatría Ramón de la Fuente Muñiz Salud Mental (México) Num.5 Vol.23 |
