- Abstract
- The purpose of this study was to get a client perspective of the different ways to exit from a different role as a drugabuser, and furthermore, how to maintain a drugfree life.
The questions of issue were:
- What kind of social-psychological conceptions rules the process?
- Which motive powers are essential to maintain drug-independence?
- Are there any difficulties on the path to social adaptation?

The method we used was semi-structured and with a thematic questionnaire. We chose this form due to the fact that we did not want to influence the interviews, as we wanted to know the persons opinions.
The result of our study showed that the interviewed persons have some difficulties to adjust in the society and to find new friends especially the interviewed persons with maintenance treatment. Marginal problems as, for example, the lack of not having a work or a home can complicate a further development for the group with maintenance treatment. The marginal symptoms seemed to be limited to the time after the abuse and then passing. The interviewed persons with no maintenance treatment seemed to have found a place in the society thru work and a home with more easiness than the other group. All of the interviewed persons have been dealing with their past and they all have a strong will to create a new life in spite of many difficulties. (Less)
