P0031 - The life-line. Dramatherapy and drug addiction
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 April 2020
Abstract
I am working with Dramatherapy method more than 17 years in different therapeutic centers for drug addiction and this abstract is focusing to specific technique, the “life – line”.
It is requested from the participants to draw their life up to now as a “metro-line”, marking the most interest stations in their itinerary and the most remarkable person in each station, following ups and downs ways between stations, according their mood in every period.
When this process is completed, it is requested from the members of the group to organize in the place their “life-line” with the most important stations in their lives and put the members of the group in roles of the represented persons in each station. Then, they pass in front of these persons, having a contact with one phrase with them, in order to understand, comprehend and reframing their relations up to now.
The results of the application are:
1) The clients “see” their life as a journey, with two phases, before and after drug use.
2) They have the opportunity to deal with the moment they began to use drugs.
3) They have the chance to “talk” with the “significant others” of their life to understand and to reframe their problematic relationships.
4) They give to the members of the group a role in their life, so they increase and improve the dynamics of the group.
5) They concentrate into their life and they realize it as a “whole”.
