    Abstract:
    First the threatening increase of dependence on alcohol, medicines and illegal drugs is illustrated by reference to some statistics. After consideration of the causes of the increase of diseases of addiction, countermeasures are discussed. Possibilities for the practising doctor and possibilities for clinical treatment including juridical certification are put forward. In the treatment of misuse as a pre-form of addiction, the concept of an addiction group is presented in detail. This group is intended to enable the patient to find a definite place within his development of addiction by a combination of rational information and emotional learning.
