Abstract

Any need of a drug addict to conform to his drug dependence is eliminated by a successfully accomplished closed system of addictive behaviour and circular change of the state of his mind. His addictive behaviour represents the so- called indestructible homeostasis of a drug - addict' s family. Meeting the drug- user's needs deprives him from any desire to deal with his own personality and behaviour. Only in cases when the addictive behaviour is thwarted by requests and even aggressive behaviour of the parents and other members of the society (environment) who ask for explanation, the sense of menace and effect of projected pursuer is convincingly achieved, which can often lead to aggression.Using the GRADIR scale, the investigation has reported that drug addicts' families are not as defective in sharing their emotions as they are defective in their structure, which intensifies irregularity that leads to drug use. If family were better structured, its member might not turn to drug.
