| Sumario: | Regarding the topic of legal or illegal psychoactive substances, there is a surrounding environment which is not neutral, and therefore, it sets the rules for production, distribution and sale of these substances and also builds the representations which culturally define their consumption. In this way, it plays a role in the use as well as in the abuse. Social groups respond to this, accepting or rejecting. The vulnerability facing the pressure involved in the exposition to these environmental forces is expressed in the group and in the individual. In the group, the necessary place to restrain social anxieties is found, as part of our survival strategy as a gregarious species. This place includes the family, the neighborhood and the community together with its different organizations. Its precariousness is associated with its incomplete structure or the failure of the family or neighborhood to support their members. In that case, final resistance to the pressures of exposition lies on the individual and his or her ability to manage in the cognitive and emotional areas. |
