The aim of the study is to investigate the distribution of social-phobic, obsessive-compulsive and panic-agoraphobic traits within a sample of individuals with ASD, social anxiety disorder (SAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and panic disorder (PD).

We examined if length of time in treatment and compliance with treatment reduced subsequent substance use and presence of psychiatric comorbidities.
