Abstract

Whether or to what extent family functions are fulfilled may be perceived differently by family members. In the relationships between parents and children, the behavior displayed at the source is often not the same as the feeling it creates in the recipient. While harmony within the family is considered among the protective factors in terms of addiction, the opposite situations appear as a risk factor. This chapter evaluates the family relationships within the scope of the study conducted with opioid/polysubstance addicts and their relatives who applied within the scope of the multidimensional counseling, treatment, and rehabilitation program called “Opening the Door to Hope, Holding on to Life” for addicts.
