The aim of this study is to examine the effect and relationship of people with substance use disorder to struggle with addiction and to be together with their family or social environment during treatment. In the research, common parameters related to family or social environment were determined and statistical data were created by using the qualitative data in the Narcologist report published in Türkiye in 2018-2022. The research findings were created with the participation of people with substance use disorders who applied to the police departments for any reason in Türkiye. According to the results of the research, those who want to get rid of substance addiction were evaluated with different groups. For example: those who want to get rid of substance addiction-those who accept that their social relations have deteriorated, those who want to get rid of substance addiction-who are married, those who work in any job-who accept that their social relations etc. According to the analysis, it has been determined that there is a linear proportion between these groups. In addition, the findings of the study were supported by the literature, emphasizing that health representatives, family members and social environment should be in a holistic approach in the fight against addiction. The contribution of this study is to identify the common points of people with substance addiction and express their opinions, and provide guidance on the current situation and expectations in the fight against addiction. The secondary contribution includes suggestions that will contribute to future research in this field and the development of complementary treatment methods by examining the findings with a theoretical framework.
