The mental consequences of the strict lockdown measures implemented by governments worldwide to fight the current COVID-19 pandemic are currently unknown [3]. There is a need to access a state of mind of front-line workers such as medical health practitioners, support medical staff and first respondent in this pandemic. COVID-19 has created a serious impact on mental health across the globe.

The final perspective is that of motivated behaviors, activities directed toward a specific bodily event such as consumption of alcohol or other addictive substances, gluttony, or orgastic release in sexual acting out (19). For example, it is essential to rule out substance abuse and eating disorders in patients with abdominal pain. Patients often present with physical symptoms that mask underlying, completely hidden behavioral disorders. Examples are patients who present with bleeding from Mallory-Weiss tears secondary to bulimic purging and patients who suffer rebound constipation from laxative abuse. Likewise, patients presenting with pancreatitis or hepatitis of unclear etiology may be in significant denial of covert alcohol dependence. Clinicians must be especially vigilant for the presence of substance abuse and eating disorders because they are often denied on initial history.

Behavioral disorders in ASD children need intervention to reduce the symptoms exhibited and improve the behavior of children with autism (Mayrani & Hartati, 2013). Nurses have an important role in overcoming problems in ASD children by providing innovation in nursing interventions. The role of nurses providing comprehensive nursing care through nursing interventions can support positive development in ASD children. The interventions given aim to reduce the symptoms of behavioral disorders in ASD children (Veskariyanti, 2012).

In this study, directional and non-directional effects of gender on the children's behavioral problems were also evaluated. As shown in Table 1, the mean score for all types of behavioral problems is higher in boys rather than girls. Investigations on the behavioral disorders have suggested somewhat similar findings (Abdollah Zadeh Rafi, Hassanzade, Nesayan, & Assadi Gandomani, 2016; Mohammadi, Vaisi, Jalali, Ghobadi & Abbasi, 2019). The differences between the results of this study and those of other studies may be explained by the social, cultural, biological, and psychological factors. In terms of cultural factors, the boys are more vulnerable to the environments than the girls. This may result from the manner of educating the boys and girls in different cultures highlighting the effect of gender on the behavioral disorders (Abdollah Zadeh Rafi et al., 2016).

It is well known that the cellular and molecular adaptation in brain reward circuitry following long-term opioid use is associated with tolerance, physical dependence, sensitization, craving, and relapse (1). Our previous findings have shown that the development of morphine dependence (2,3), either naloxone-precipitated (3,4) or spontaneous (5) morphine withdrawal can lead to psychological dependence signs such as anxiety and depression, grooming (obsessive-like behavior), locomotor sensitization. Drug-priming-induced locomotor sensitization following morphine withdrawal in turn may increase craving and relapse (1,6), impair regulation of serotonin (5-HT) release in the dorsal raphe nucleus (7). It was shown that the increased serotonin transmission suppressed behavioral sensitization and withdrawal in morphine-or/heroin-dependent animals (8). Thus, the prevention of drug-induced mood and behavioral disorders may prove beneficial to the restore of locomotor sensitization and relapse.

Co-occurring behavioral disorders (ADHD and ODD and/or CD) are common with an estimates of 50% of youth with ADHD also meeting the criteria for ODD/CD (Pliszka, 2003). They pose an additional threat to the success of CA-HIV due to their compounded negative impacts on physical and mental health, and social, educational and economic outcomes. Research suggests co-occurring behavioral disorders present as a clinically distinct group from individual behavioral disorders. In a review of the impact of co-occurring psychiatric disorders on peer functioning, social skills problems were significantly greater among individuals with ADHD and ODD/CD (Becker et al., 2012). In a study of Ukranian non-HIV affected youth, those with ADHD + ODD scored higher on aggression, anxiety and depression and experienced greater caregiver conflict than the sum of their individual disorders would predict (Drabick et al., 2004). Co-occurring ODD/CD is associated with negative physical health and mental health and poorer social and economic outcomes among youth with ADHD in general. In the United States, for example, a 10-year longitudinal study of co-occurring behavioral disorders in a non-HIV sample of boys, Biederman and colleagues found boys with ADHD + ODD/CD were at increased risk of having a substance use disorder, depressive disorder and anti-social personality disorder compared to those without a behavioral disorder and those with ADHD Only (Biederman et al., 2008). They also found these boys were more likely to have initiated sexual intercourse before age 16 and been suspended or expelled from school.
