People With Tattoos More Likely to Also Have Mental Health Issues
A new study has discovered that people with tattoos were more likely to be
diagnosed with mental health issues and to report sleep problems.
Researchers also found that people who had tattoos were more likely to be
smokers, to have spent time in jail, and to have a higher number of sex
partners in the past year.
However, the survey-based study also found that having tattoos was not
significantly related to overall health status.
The survey was conducted in July 2016 and resulted in a sample of 2,008
adults living in the United States, according to researchers.
“Previous research has established an association between having a tattoo
and engaging in risky behaviors,” said lead author Dr. Karoline Mortensen, a
professor at the University of Miami. “In an era of increasing popularity of
tattoos, even among women and working professionals, we find these
relationships persist, but are not associated with lower health status.”
The study was published in the International Journal of Dermatology.
