Substance use, which has become one of the most important problems of our time, affects the majority of people negatively. When we examine it in terms of biopsychosocial (biological-psychological-social), we see many effects. Substance use has become a situation that is learned by seeing it in the environment. While a child living in an environment where there is no substance use does not know what it is and what kind of effect it has, the fact that a mother, father, brother or sister is in use in the house, who grew up in the used environment, causes that child to be exposed to this situation every day and arouses curiosity in the child. When people are asked about the reason for starting substance use, it is observed that use in the family environment or in the circle of friends poses a risk. The use of the mother and father in the home causes that smoke to be inhaled. And the body can get used to it. Requests may occur at certain times. Although there are many people who stay clean without using it in this way, this situation becomes normal due to the fact that it is used in the family, and the person becomes curious about the substance, use may be the inevitable end.
The absence of a mother or father or the prison process may cause many different responsibilities on that child. The use of the mother or father becomes unable to fulfill their responsibilities and they may be faced with negative situations such as communication disorder caused by substance use, unrest in the home, and even exposure to violence, which cause disruption of the order. Support is essential in this process. In certain cases, inpatient treatment or medication support should be provided. The person has difficulty in quitting the substance alone. In this case, family support is important. It is important not to be idle and to do activities that will cause him to direct his head to positive thoughts. If there is no business life, directing him to business life, enabling him to acquire a hobby he loves, reading books or watching TV series and movies in his spare time can help him get away from negative thoughts.
It is important for the person to be willing in this process. There is no point in treating it with pressure. After a while, it starts looking for excuses to use it again. The person should see the negativity that the substance creates in himself and make an effort to realize what he has to do in order to direct his life better. is He should stay away from the friend environment and environment in use. He should normalize reminders in his life. (Seeing the foil as it is normally used is like wrapping a pastry) One should not lose faith in himself. It must have a specific purpose. He should show interest in the people, things and hobbies he loves.
Why does the person return to use after treatment?
Seeing with friends, going to the places he/she uses, experiencing the same problems and not being able to produce different solutions, helplessness and worthlessness Feeling it can cause reuse. It is important to change his way when he sees his fellow users, or to make statements that he has quit the substance. It is necessary to be able to say no when invited to the environment. Saying that I have work today, I will come another time, will cause that person to call you again or invite you to the usage environment. It is important to use clear language. The person's willingness to quit the substance is one of the biggest reasons for the success of the treatment.
