La recuperación natural de la adicción al alcohol y otras drogas

Carballo Crespo, José Luis 17 July 2007 (has links)
La recuperación natural es la vía preferente de recuperación entre los que abandonan o reducen el consumo de alcohol y otras sustancias, aunque se desconoce si dicha mejoría presenta diferencias sustanciales en función de la sustancia consumida o del contexto cultural de los adictos.Esta tesis examina las circunstancias y determinantes del proceso de recuperación entre alcohol y abusadores de drogas hispanohablantes de España y Estados Unidos que han cambiado por sí mismos, en términos de antecedentes y consecuentes. Tratados y autocambiadores de distintas adicciones y países fueron comparados para la consecución de este objetivo.Anuncios, póster y otras estrategias fueron usadas en España y Florida (EEUU) para reclutar 83 individuos (29 autocambiadores de España, 25 autocambiadores de Estados Unidos y 29 tratados de España) que habían tenido problemas con alcohol y/o otras drogas, y que llevaban recuperados un año o más.Consistentemente con los estudios previos, aquellos que se recuperaron sin tratamiento tuvieron una historia de uso de la sustancia más grave que los que cambiaron por sí mismos. Respecto al autocambio de distintas adicciones, no se encontraron diferencias en los determinantes del autocambio entre autocambiadores que se recuperaron de sus problemas de alcohol y aquellos autocambiadores que se recuperaron de problemas con otras drogas. Por otro lado, la principal diferencia encontrada entre autocambiadores hispanohablantes es que los autocambiadores reclutados en Florida percibieron mayor gravedad en sus problemas pasados con las sustancias en comparación a los autocambiadores de España, de todos modos ambos grupos son muy similares.Estos hallazgos son paralelos a los encontrados en poblaciones no hispanohablantes y sugieren que los procesos relacionados con el cambio son transculturales. Por último, más estudios transculturales con muestras más amplias son necesarios para entender mejor que aspectos conducen y mantienen las recuperaciones del alcohol y otras drogas. / Natural recovery, or self-change, is not an isolated or rare phenomenon, is the preferred route of recovery among those who give up or reduce their use of alcohol and other substances, though it is not known whether there are wide variations in this improvement depending on the substance consumed or the addicts' cultural context. This dissertation examine the circumstances and determinants among Spanish-speaking alcohol and drug abusers from Spain and United States who had changed on their own, in terms of the antecedents and consequences related participants' recovery processes. Treated and self-changers from different addictions and countries were compared to achieve this objective. Advertisements, poster and other strategies were used in Spain and in Florida (USA) to recruit 83 individuals (29 self-changers from Spain, 25 self-changers from United States and 29 treatment-changers from Spain) who had had problems with alcohol and/or drugs, and who had been recovered for a year or more.Consistent with previous studies, those who had recovered through treatment had a more serious substance use history than those who changed on their own. Whit respect to self-change from different addictions, no differences in self-change's determinants were found between self-changers who recovered from alcohol problems and those recovered from other drug problems. In the other hand, the main different found among Spanish-speaking self-changers it that self-changers recruited in Florida perceived high severity on their past substance problems compared to self-changers from Spain, anyway, both groups are very similar.These findings parallel those for non Spanish-speaking populations and suggest that factors related to the change process are cross-cultural. Lastly, cross-cultural studies with larger samples are needed to better understand what drives and maintains alcohol and drug abusers recoveries.
