ABSTRACT

The objective of the present study is to compare the level of social support in treatment between recovery and relapse heroin addicts. It was hypothesized that "the perceived family and social support of recovery drug addicts would be more positive than the relapse heroin addicts". The sample comprised of 25 recovery drug addicts and 30 relapse patients of the drug treatment. In order to asses' family and social support, the demographic data sheet was filled and the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List [ISEL] was followed. Results indicated marked difference in the mean perceived social support scores of two groups. It may be interpreted that higher perception of family and social support is associated with the recovery addicts, than the relapse group, who perceive their families and society as less supportive. Hence, lesser family and social support hampers the treatment of addicts and results in relapse
