Abstract
Results from a clinical study on 71 female abusers in alcoholism treatment focusing on psychosocial factors, i.e. emotional factors, social network and social support, are presented. The women suffer from a lack of self-esteem, guilt, shame and powerlessness. Broken relationships, a tendency to confirm with drinking partners, sexual problems and sexual abuse were all found to be important reasons for female abusers’ drinking. Drinking to reduce stress, to relax, or for the intoxicating effect were also significant factors in the women’s drinking patterns. Emotional problems relating to the women themselves were stronger incentives for change than social problems. The results suggest that therapeutic intervention for women must focus on raising self-esteem, solving emotional problems and managing stress.
