CARON, Eduardo; FEUERWERKER, Laura Camargo Macruz  e  PASSOS, Eduardo Henrique. GAM, Care Support in Álcohol and Other Drugs. Rev. Polis Psique [online]. 2020, vol.10, n.2, pp. 99-121. ISSN 2238-152X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22456/2238-152X.103408.

A process of capillarization of the GAM strategy - Autonomous Management of Medication - is discussed. In São Paulo, between 2017 and 2018, workers and users were invited to the investigation and experimentation of the GAM proposal in the specialized attention to the suffering in the field of alcohol and other drugs. This process resulted in the construction of a device that generates support practices distributed among workers and users and of a collective with potential to increase possibilities of harm reduction. Throughout the process, workers held "support workshops" and moderated "GAM groups" with users. Two analyzer's themes emerged in this collective process: the experiences of violence that happens in the existence of the users and the day-to-day of the workers in the institution; and the expectation of abstinence and the frustration of "relapses" that affect care relationships in the service and clinic.
