Abstract |
The temporal dimensions that shape the senses and practices of men and women who are poly-consumers of psychoactive substances, 18-35 years of age, and living in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires were analyzed. Using a qualitative approach, 29 individual in-depth interviews were carried out and then analyzed through a constant comparative analysis process between the categories generated from the data obtained and the theoretical concepts. From the analysis, practices and meanings emerge that regulate the diverse temporalities that underlie drug consumption: feelings related to body rhythms, periods between consumptions, the timing of phases of the life cycle, or unspecific temporalities that become an adequate "moment" for consumption. These practices require that particular attention be paid to time, as this enables the flexibility to consume without being a consumer, to use drugs without being addicted to them. |
