Abstract Building a strong support system is crucial for individuals battling addiction which primarily includes family, friends, and the community. Peer groups in particular provide empathy, motivation, and companionship. The community support consists of groups like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and offers a safe space for individuals to share their experiences and receive guidance. This article has explored and provided insights into the importance of a robust support network in the recovery process essential for long-term sobriety.
The study concentrates on the individual drug trysts and shared experiences of four drug addicts who are receiving rehabilitation in various state centers. Through direct observation, experiential learning, and a thorough review of the body of literature, the primary data collected was strengthened. The goals are to research the role of support systems in overcoming drug addiction and offer suggestions for reducing drug use. Supported by the data findings, this study emphasizes the importance of recognizing early signs of drug abuse and dependency in family members, considering the socialization process, and implementing awareness programs in educational as well as community institutions. Community-based services, such as drop-in centers and rehabilitation centers, can prove to be effective in preventing drug abuse and promoting healthy life choices.
