Abstract/Summary
This study presents the different views that drug addicts have of themselves, before they were introduced to the drug, during their addiction, and the period after which they have been rehabilitated. The researchers made of the group interview method in obtaining their data. This was done with the help of an interview guide. The participants of the study were composed of 6 male and 6 female drug dependents. Their ages ranged from 16 to 40 years old. In obtaining the sample population, the researchers utilized the non-probability chain referral sampling technique. Based on the data that the researchers have gathered and analyzed, the outcome of their study shows that those drug dependents that have healthy social relationships are most likely to have high self-perceptions. On the other hand, those drug dependents that have unhealthy social relationships tend to have low self-perceptions.
