To study the New York City area population after the September 11, 2001, 9/11 attacks, focusing on tobacco and drug use and drug use disorders. An abundance of research has identified the important mental health sequelae stemming from exposure to disasters, especially vulnerability to the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and major depressive disorder (MDD). There also is a body of literature on the association of disaster exposure with alcohol use/misuse, but far less research on tobacco and other drug use/disorders. A terrorism-affected sample ( N  = 379) was assessed nearly 3 years after the attacks using structured diagnostic interviews, providing predisaster and postdisaster prevalence and incidence of tobacco and drug use, changes in tobacco and drug use, and predisaster and postdisaster prevalence and incidence of drug use disorders in relation to the 9/11 attacks.  DSM-IV  criteria were fully assessed using structured diagnostic interviews for psychiatric disorders including PTSD, MDD, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and alcohol and drug use disorders. Tobacco use did not increase significantly, and no predictors of increased tobacco use could be found for any subgroups, including disaster trauma exposures. Drug use (largely cannabis) increased initially but decreased by 3 years after the attacks. Drug use disorders, which were associated with other psychiatric disorders, were rare and primarily began prior to 9/11. The overall lack of increase of tobacco use or predictors of increased use found after the disaster and the low rates of new drug use disorders suggest that universal screening for increased tobacco use and new drug use disorders by clinicians may have very low yield. Regardless, postdisaster settings provide suitable circumstances for general discussions about self-care including concern for increased tobacco use, avoiding drug use, and guidance on healthier means of managing stress than through substances. Additionally, because existing tobacco and drug use are endemic in populations, the postdisaster setting can serve as a reminder for clinicians to assess these problems generally and provide appropriate referrals when needed. Postdisaster circumstances offer opportunities to disseminate and promote public health messages and address issues of substance use and misuse.
