Analysis of types of treatment settings and providers accessed was limited to participants who reported seeking any treatment for their alcohol problem. Compared to individuals with AUD without comorbid mood or anxiety disorders, those with AUD with mood or anxiety disorder comorbidity were overall more likely to use most types of settings and providers (Table 3). After adjusting for potential confounders, individuals with AUD and comorbid mood or anxiety disorders reported a higher prevalence of use of inpatient services, outpatient clinics, halfway houses, employee assistance programs, religious counselors, and private physicians or other medical/mental health professionals. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) was the most commonly used type of service in both groups (Table 3). In unadjusted analyses, AA was more commonly used by the comorbid group than the group without mood or anxiety disorder comorbidity. However, this difference did not persist in adjusted analysis (Table 3).
