Conclusions
depression, impulsivity, anxiety
The results of our study show that through AT, alcohol dependence, depression, anxiety, and impulsivity in patients with AUD decreased, and that AT was effective prevention and recovery. The results do not indicate a reduction in the number of patients with AUD but do suggest that AT is indeed beneficial in numerous ways.AT can be used as a stress control program for preventing relapse and can help patients with AUD become functional members of society. We found that psychological support through AT had a significant effect on immune response, stress response, and psychosocial measures. And by observing the changes, we found a link between psychological mechanisms and SAP. This study is the first of its kind to present biological evidence in the treatment of psychological problems that could have a physically negative impact on AUD patients in humans, and shows the connection between physiology and mental health in addiction rehabilitation and shows the importance of psychological rehabilitation. We hope that the results of this study would contribute to its applicability of AT as one of the intervention methods for treating AUD.
