“…Four systematic processes were identified that could contribute to the initiation or relapse of SUD, including isolation, inhumane treatment, inconsistent treatment, and indoctrination. 31 Empirical research has linked family dysfunction to maladaptive emotion regulation strategies and behaviors, some of which are associated with SUD. For instance, family conflict and parental rejection are reported variables in dysfunctional families that have been correlated with SUD.…”

Background: Substance use disorder (SUD) remains a significant public health issue, with a high relapse rate even after detoxification treatment. Family dysfunction has been identified as a closely related factor contributing to relapse in individuals with SUD. The objective of this study was to investigate the mediating role of family climate in the relapse tendency among patients with SUD. Methods: The study employed a case-control design using the survey method. A total of 103 patients from the addiction unit daycare at Mansoura University Hospital were divided into 2 groups: the relapsed group and the abstinent group. The Relapse Tendency Questionnaire, the Family Climate Scale, and a structured interview were administered to collect sociodemographic data. Findings: The results revealed significant differences between the study groups in terms of sociodemographic risk factors, including marital status (P≤0.001), employment (P=0.043), and economic status (P=0.028). Additionally, a significant difference was observed between the study groups in terms of the Family Climate Scale (P=0.038). Female participants reported that familial factors had a greater influence on their relapse compared to male participants (P=0.005). Conclusion: A statistically significant difference was found in the family climate subscale scores between the relapsed patients and the abstinent patients with SUD, confirming the influential role of family climate in the relapse process of SUD.

“…Norton (31) (1993) has proposed four systematic processes that operate to lead to a loss of identity of family members and the perpetuation of the system. Norton suggests that these insidious processes create salience and a denial of problems related to addiction coupled with unavoidable stress, trauma, and deprivation.…”

ContextRecent years have produced many articles about women’s addiction and its risk factors and the consequences of substance use and misuse in the emotional, social, psychological, and economic domains of life. Family vulnerabilities are one of the most important variables contributing to addiction among women. Thus, the purpose of this article is to investigate areas of family life that lead to women’s taking up and maintaining drug and alcohol abuse.Evidence AcquisitionA database search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, Springer, and Google Scholar was conducted using the following keywords: “women and addiction”, “women addiction and family”, “addiction”, “substance abuse” and “family”. For the first step, we chose studies that were conducted between 2000 and 2015, and for the second step, studies conducted before 2000. We categorized all search results into three main groups: processes related to family disturbances, factors related to parenting styles, and variables related to partners.ResultsPartners, parenting styles, and family disturbances are three main factors affecting children growing up in a family and their inclination toward addiction. Some of these pathways are complicated and indirect, and some are straightforward.ConclusionsFuture research should pay more attention to the mechanisms and pathways mediating or moderating the relationship between family risk factors and addiction in women. Clinicians and researchers should keep in mind these vulnerabilities and take into consideration factors special to processes related to addiction in women.
