“…-The social rejection, outcasting, and precariousness, which place the heroin addict in a particular condition of vulnerability. Regardless of whether social exclusion is considered an antecedent or a consequence of drug consumption, it involves a complex combination of interrelated problems such as unemployment, low economic income, loss of skills, the erosion of support networks, exposure to violence, and the breaking of balance in family and other institutions (March, Oviedo-Joekes, & Romero, 2006;Epele, 2010). In Mexico, Fleiz and collaborators have documented factors of this nature associated with exclusion (Fleiz et al, 2019).…”

Introduction. The evaluation of methadone maintenance programs reports generally positive outcomes. Objective. To explore the psychosocial factors that contribute to achieve treatment goals even when patients live in conditions of precariousness and exclusion. Method. Qualitative study of multiple cases, with a sample of 12 interviews with patients participating in a maintenance and detoxification program with methadone; a thematic and discursive-narrative analysis was undertaken. Results. We identified the predominance of a typical discursive scheme composed of clearly differentiated narrative segments: previous conditions, establishment of a relationship with the therapeutic system, process of adjustment as a part of treatment and social reintegration. Two main themes were also identified: addiction and dealing with substances, and the problem of normative integration; there was also an experience of acceptance and recognition that constitutes a central factor for treatment. Discussion and conclusion. These findings are discussed in light of the disaffiliated conditions of people using injected heroin and the need to consider psychosocial and normative adjustment as a relevant factor for treatment and social reintegration, which leads to the suggestion to include psychotherapeutic interventions to accompany and reinforce the process.

(analytical): This article aims to analyze the different ways in which young people attending electronic music events in Buenos Aires use discourses and terminologies related to neuroscience to account for their recreational consumption of synthetic drugs, their forms of sociability and the various approaches they use to understand themselves. Interviews were conducted with an informant and a discussion group was organised with a group of young people who attend electronic music events. The author suggests that the narratives of these young people refer to a somatic cerebral individuality as a form of grammar that makes their processes subjectivization intelligible. However, these references occur in the form of mutations, where different biomedical sources coexist ranging from psychology to the neurosciences.
