Description
Summary:Religious is an important protective and preventive factor to help overcome social problems, particularly with regards to addiction relapse. Religion refers to a social institution which includes believers, faith and belief systems, and religious practices. Religious beliefs influence the well-being of individual and positively related to self-esteem and feeling of mastery which, in turn, are associated with psychical and psychological well-being. Religiosity is consistently linked to a positive vertical relationship between God and religion. A cross sectional quantitative research were carried out among 290 former drug users in seven Cure and Care Service Centers (CCSC) to investigate the effects of religiosity well-being on risk of drug relapse. Data were gathered using a survey questionnaire which was adapted from the Spiritual Well-being Scale (SWB) and Drug Taking Confidence Questionnaires (DTCQ), and was translated into the Malay language using back translation. Results revealed that there was a negative relationship between Religious Well-being (RWB) and drug relapse, in which the higher the RWB, the lower the risk of drug relapse. Thus, religious well-being approach was recommended. This approach provide an inclusive social work based interventions aimed to enhance the individual’s religious well-being through religious understanding, beliefs, and good practices towards better self-awareness, self-efficacy, resiliency, coping and self-locus control among the former drug users in order to reduce the risk of relapse.
