Abstract

This paper analyzes the use of psychoactive substances as a category in 5 people between 25 and 27 years old, in the “La Rioja” integral protection unit in IDRIPON, in the city of Bogotá. They participated in a semi structured interview, thus, finding answers to some emergent meanings such as supervision negligence, deficiency in their life projects, weak affective relationships, negative peers and acknowledgment of their consumption habits. These emergent meanings made way for conclusions regarding the origin of psychoactive substance use and the current situation of these young adults, such as upbringing, identity development state, family ties and different phases in their addictions. Thus, bringing about the conclusion that, by identifying the risk factors in these emergent meanings, there is an option for a community based treatment, using scientific evidence that can be adjusted to specific situations and the reality by modifying behavioral patterns which clearly determines drug-dependency in each one.
