Interaction and Creative Sharing of Experiences
In the heart of Delmenhorst, Germany, on July 21, the community will come together for an event aimed at making discussions about drugs and substitution therapy more open and less stigmatized. The event, which takes place from 2 to 4 PM on Delmenhorst's town hall square, invites everyone to paint stones in memory of deceased drug users.
This year's event is significant for Delmenhorst, as it seeks to facilitate conversations and exchange of ideas about a topic that is often shrouded in shame. Nicole Meyer-Böhle, a social scientist at drob, states that there has been a noticeable interest in the event, with new friends and family members joining last year.
Drob, a local organisation, is raising awareness about support services, prevention, and substitution therapy. However, they are currently unable to accept new clients due to a shortage of doctors for substitution therapy. Sarah Owen, a social worker and addiction therapist at drob, suggests that the activity helps start conversations about drugs.
Having local offers for substitution therapy is crucial, especially for physically impaired individuals. For those seeking medical supervised substitution therapy in Delmenhorst, it is recommended to look for specialists or clinics offering ärztlich betreute Substitutionstherapie. This therapy involves treating addiction with a less harmful replacement substance under medical supervision.
If needed, public health services in Germany, such as the Gesundheitsamt or specialized counseling centres, can direct you to appropriate physicians offering this treatment in Delmenhorst. Currently, there are only three practices available for substitution therapy in the area.
Drob is urgently seeking doctors who can provide substitution therapy, and referrals for new clients are being made to Bremen and other locations. Music requests can be sent to [email protected] in advance, adding a creative touch to this community event.
