Ediz, Cicek; Uzun, Sevda; Erdas, Mehmed Burak
This study used a phenomenological research approach to investigate the experiences of individuals in an eastern Turkey city who initiated substance use during childhood. Fourteen participants were selected using criterion sampling and engaged in semistructured, in-depth interviews. The interviews were recorded and transcribed, and a thematic analysis was applied to the data. The study revealed 3 overarching categories (reasons leading to substance use, effects of substance addiction, and coping with addiction) and 9 subthemes (familial factors, environmental factors, traumatic experiences, personal factors, psychological effects, physical effects, social effects, perception of social support, and treatment process).
