We live in a society that has changed rapidly in recent years. The Swedish welfare state identity consisted of structures that had been formed from an emancipatory project. Today, these structures seem to have been erased and replaced by a different form of society. When a society is changing it affects the political, social and economic levels.In this social change Social Democracy seems to have lost its hegemonic position in society and describes itself as standing in a crisis. An effort to modernize the party has therefore begun.

Bakgrund: Narkotika har förekommit i flera tusen Ă„r och missbruk definieras idag som en sjukdom. DebutĂ„ldern ligger i genomsnitt pĂ„ 17,5 Ă„r och den lĂ„ga Ă„ldern gör att anhöriga pĂ„verkas i stor utstrĂ€ckning och ofta hamnar i skymundan inom vĂ„rden och forskningen. Även det bĂ€sta hemförhĂ„llandet kan drabbas av ett narkotikamissbruk vilket gör att det aldrig gĂ„r att förutse vilka familjer som lider störst risk.Syfte: Syftet med studien var att belysa hur familjen upplevde att ha en narkotikamissbrukande tonĂ„ring och ung vuxen i sin nĂ€rhet.Metod: Litteraturstudie med kvalitativ ansats byggd pĂ„ elva vetenskapliga arbeten med bĂ„de kvalitativa och kvantitativa inriktningar. Med hjĂ€lp av Graneheim och Lundmans (2004) innehĂ„llsanalys analyserades arbetena.Resultat: Resultatet bestod av tre huvudkategorier: FörĂ€ndrad familjetillvaro; KĂ€rleken till den förlorade tonĂ„ringen; Sveket frĂ„n samhĂ€llet. I resultatet framkom det att förĂ€ldrarna upplevde oro över tonĂ„ringarnas framtid samtidigt som de uttryckte skuld och skam över det som hĂ€nt.Slutsatser: Författarna anser att sjuksköterskor och annan vĂ„rdpersonal bör ha mer kunskap om de anhörigas situation vid tonĂ„ringars missbruk för att kunna hjĂ€lpa dem ur lidandet.
