Perception of drug users on family: a phenomenological study. Rev Bras Enferm. 2018;71(suppl 5):2094-2100 Authors: Lima JL, Carvalho PAL, Santos VTCD, Oliveira MAF, Malhado SCB, Santana EM, Sena ELDS Abstract OBJECTIVE: to understand the perception of drug users about "being a family" in the context of their psychosocial rehabilitation. METHOD: based on the theoretical-philosophical reference of Maurice Merleau-Ponty. It was carried out with eleven users of the Center for Psychosocial Care Alcohol and other Drugs (CAPS AD) in a municipality in the South of Bahia, Brazil, through the Focal Group, in August 2015. The resulting material was submitted to the Ambiguity Analytical Technique. RESULTS: the readings of the descriptions allowed the definition of the thematic category: Nuances of being family: materialist and existential view. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: the results of the study converged to the understanding that the user of alcohol and other drugs recognizes the "being a family" from two dimensions: a more materialistic, and an existentialist, which need to be considered in the process of psychosocial rehabilitation of this user.
