Abstract
This literature review explores the intricate relationship between substance abuse, sexual dysfunction, and victimization, emphasizing a multifaceted victimological perspective. It delves into research on how expectations regarding sexuality impact and are impacted by sexual dysfunction and drug consumption, affecting mental and emotional well-being. The cycle of initial relief from drugs turning into dependency worsens sexual difficulties and emotional distress. This interplay strains interpersonal relationships, causing communication breakdowns and emotional distance. The comprehensive perspective advocates for empathetic interventions, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach that considers physical and psychological aspects. It stresses open communication and support systems, with trauma-informed approaches crucial for breaking the cycle of victimization and fostering meaningful recovery. Recognizing and addressing these intersections promotes healthier relationships, both with oneself and others.
