Resumo

Many of the patients who undertake treatment for drug consumption reveal a series of overlapping problems, sometimes due to their own addiction. These problems influence the final results of therapeutic supervision. In order to accurately determine the influence of some of these problems, we studied a sample of 210 addicts subjected to treatment (83% males and 17% females), trying to correlate the various types of problems (legal, vocational, economic, psychopathologic as well as family problems, etc.) with their therapeutic evolution. One of the variables which seems most consistently to predict treatment results is precisely the level of depressive symptomatology shown by the patient. To more accurately assess the influence of this variable, we compared 75 subjectpatients, all of them presenting depressive symptomatology, with 135 patients who did not. The data indicated that patients with certain levels of depressive symptomatology came from more problematic and conflictive family environments, a significant difference from those who did not present those symptoms. This seems to complicate their recovery. Judging by the data, it would be advisable to diversify treatment, with procedures that specifically address depressive symptomatology and family environment, with the aim of optimizing treatment results.
