- Abstract
The detailed, accurate national and international situation regarding drug addiction will always have some weaknesses points. The dependence to different drugs, in correlation with factors related to culture, mentality, self-control, habits or low self-esteem, could explain this behavior of searching a balance that some people do not find in their private life. The therapeutic approach is complex and consists of a harmonious combination of pharmacological therapy with psychotherapy in order to avoid relapses and shape the addictive personality. The compliance is essential in achieving therapeutic goals; it depends not only on the patient’s behavior, but also on the therapist's abilities, on family, psychosocial and cultural factors. The long-term prognosis and the evolution of the addicted behavior are individualized especially by the degree of involvement of the patient and his sociofamilial entourage in obtaining the best possible therapeutic compliance. Thus, the aim of this paper is to underline the main important types of psychotherapies that can be used for drug addiction and their framing in the general therapeutic management.
