[Intramural weaning from drug dependence. Experiences with a drug abuse group in the LHM (Lucerne High-altitude Clinic in Montana)].
The development towards mixed groups of drug-dependent patients, its advantages and drawbacks and the advantage of groups as such are described. The implicit multicausal approach to pathogenesis of drug dependence is depicted. Common objections and defensive attitudes in dependent persons are described and clues for a better understanding and more efficient approach to these individuals are offered. The goal of an intervention is not only to provide motivation and guidance for drug free life for the dependent and control of abusive behavior for the abuser but an expansion of emotional cognitive and behavioral aspects of personality. Success does not lastly depend on an adequate approach of the professional and non professional social environment to the drug-dependent individual.
