MA users admitted to psychiatric emergency services in Türkiye often present with severe symptoms, high rates of comorbidity, and polysubstance use. Recognizing key risk factors may help guide early intervention and integrated care for this vulnerable group. These findings add new knowledge from a non-Western context and may inform clinical practice and policy in similar settings worldwide.
