Abstract:
:The authors describe the ambulatory treatment of a young man, the son of a divorced mother, where they used a methodology called Combined Treatment of Heroin Addicts, which was done in stages. They used family sessions, with a concomitant hearing of the patient alone, combined with the use of an opioid antagonist, called naltrexone. The young man was adopted by an uncle, married to his mother's sister, because his mother was divorced, living alone, and was too old to support, contain and provide her son with the necessary basis for treatment. The uncle assumed the tutorage of the case completely and gave his nephew the basis for identification and psychic maturation. The young man has now a year of treatment with a satisfactory evolution: he has had good results in his studies, has achieved good family and social integration, and does not use heroin.
