Abstract

TESSARO, Luiz Gustavo Santos  and  RATTO, Cleber Gibbon. People who are addicted on drugs: essay of figures and completions. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2015, vol.21, n.1, pp. 83-94. ISSN 1809-6867.

The addiction is a subject very in vogue nowadays and convenes the health professionals to think and produce knowledge about this topic, in order to promote a better attention to people who search some kind of assistance. This work seeks to contribute with discussions about this issue, under the theoretical approach of Gestalt-therapy and its existential phenomenological philosophical basis. Some vignettes were made from situations experienced by the author, which triggered reflections that appointed to the necessity of a look not only on the subject, but over the strengths that cross and produce the contemporary way of being as well. It was also possible to observe some approaches between the gestalt point of view and the Collective Health field.

Keywords : Addiction; Gestalt-therapy; Existentialism; Phenomenology; Collective health.
