A Qualitative Inquiry into the Challenges in Overcoming Heroin Addiction Among Chinese Individuals Who Experience Voluntary Rehabilitation.
This study explores the intentions and experiences of individuals seeking abstinence from heroin use through voluntary rehabilitation, as well as challenges to achieving a positive outcome. This study used semi-structured interviews with 37 individuals (22 female) who used heroin and utilized rational choice theory to guide data analysis. This study found that participants tried both medical and non-medical treatment methods but faced structural and personal barriers that hindered their efforts. While ceasing heroin use would presumably benefit their health and family relationships, individuals perceived the physical, psychological, and social costs of abstinence as outweighing the potential benefits and ultimately resumed heroin use. More targeted voluntary rehabilitation programs addressing specific structural and personal barriers are therefore recommended to benefit Chinese people seeking abstinence from drug use.
