Abstract

Drug abuse is a serious problem that affects the health, social, and economic aspects of society. The recovery process from drug dependence is greatly influenced by an individual's motivation to recover, which can be significantly strengthened through social support. This study aims to investigate the relationship between social support and recovery motivation among drug abuse victims undergoing rehabilitation at the Medan Recovery Home Foundation. The study employs a quantitative method with a correlational approach. The population in this study consisted of all 35 residents at the Medan Recovery House Foundation, with a sample of 30 residents who had undergone rehabilitation for more than one month. The research instruments consisted of two questionnaires: a social support scale and a recovery motivation scale. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires, while data analysis utilized normality tests, linearity tests, Pearson correlation, and partial t-tests. The results of the study indicate that social support is in the high category (50%), while recovery motivation is in the moderate category (43%). The correlation test shows a significant positive relationship between social support and recovery motivation (r = 0.579; p = 0.001), meaning that the higher the social support received, the higher the individual's motivation to recover. This study emphasizes the importance of social support in strengthening the recovery spirit of drug abuse victims.
