Aim:To determine the incidence of depression and mental comorbidities among individuals with alcohol dependence. Materials and Methods: This research was done in the Department of Psychiatry in a hospital setting. Only patients who were 18 years of age or older and had recently been diagnosed with alcohol dependency syndrome were included. A total of 100 male patients with alcohol dependent syndrome, who attended the Psychiatry Out Patient Department (OPD), were recruited in the research using purposive selection approach. Depression in patients was evaluated by means of a clinical interview, using the ICD-10 criteria. The degree of depression was determined using the HAM-D rating scale, which categorizes scores as follows: 0-7 indicates normal, 8-16 indicates mild depression, 17-23 indicates moderate depression, and 24 or more indicates severe depression. Results: The whole patient population consisted of males (100%). The majority of the subjects were married (59%) and had completed education up to the upper secondary level (46%). Additionally, 49% of the subjects identified as Muslim, 54% came from rural backgrounds, and 58% were skilled workers. The incidence of depression among patients was determined to be 93%. Moderate depression was the most prevalent, accounting for 58% of cases, followed by severe depression at 27%, and mild depression at 12%. The most often seen condition is Anxiety condition, accounting for 19% of cases. This is followed by depressive disorder at 13%, bipolar disorder at 11%, and personality disorder at 9%. Conclusion: Alcohol Use Disorders (AUDs), depression, and the simultaneous presence of these conditions place a significant and overwhelming weight on people, families, and communities. The majority of people diagnosed with alcohol dependency syndrome also experience depression. Alcohol dependency is linked to higher degrees of impairment, regardless of whether depression is present or not.
