Abstract

The familial experience with adolescent alcohol and drug users is investigated. Current descriptive and qualitative research was undertaken between July and September 2015. Five family members of crack and other psychoactive drugs users participated. Data were collected through half-structured interviews with open and closed questions. Content analysis, theme mode, proposed by Minayo (2007) was employed. Results reveal the affection liabilities to kin, expressed anger, angst, fear and concern, besides the overload of work and care. Current analysis demonstrated the need for more attention to family members of drug users.
