Neuropsychosocial–Spiritual Correlates of Serene Abstinence in Adults with Alcohol Use Disorder Receiving Community-Based Recovery Care in Romania: A Longitudinal Observational Study Protocol (SER-ABS-AUD)

Background/Objectives: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) contributes substantially to premature mortality and disability in Romania. Recovery is commonly evaluated according to abstinence status, with less attention to psychological functioning, social support, spiritual well-being, and quality of life. SER-ABS-AUD (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT07561749) examines ‘serene abstinence’ as a preliminary multidimensional recovery construct among adults with AUD receiving community-based recovery support.
