This papers main topic is the expressed needs of alcohol abusers and addicts at a specialized service. Its aim is the first expressed needs of subjects that abuse or are dependent on the use of alcohol, who seek of their own volition the specialized service of a Psychosocial Care Center for Alcohol and other Drugs. The epistemological choice was based on the González Rey Qualitative Epistemology, wich advocates for the construction of knowledge as a co-built reality between the researcher-subject and the researched subjects, privileging the function of communication in the process. The studys main objective was to learn about how the spontaneous expression of needs of alcohol-abusing and alcohol-dependent subjects is demonstrated in the context of their reception at a specialized Center, seeking to investigate on the core narrative that leads to the service, the decision-making process, and the events that influenced in the process of looking for specialized help, or its delayed action. The Systemic Theory was adopted as a theoretical reference, by which alcoholism is understood as a relational symptom and auxiliary in the maintenance of homeostasis of the familial systems, while is also dennounces the dysfunctional dynamics of those systems. The reference mentioned was complemented by the assumptions of the Motivational Interview and the Transtheoretical Modelo of Stages of Change. The qualitative research methodology of González Rey was used. The tool used was the semi-structured interview. They were interviewed nine men between 30 and 51 years old with socioeconomic diferences. The interviews were taped, transcribed and analized by the interpretative proposal of the Qualitative Epistemology, wich argues that the construction of knowledge is a constructive-interpretative process throughout the research work. Three Sense Zones were constructed and named: 1) Request for the break of the cycle of losses and rescue of lost things; 2) It was a horrible experience! I dont want anyone to go through it, for I know what Ive been through: beliefs about madness and the strategies of coping with this stigma; and 3) From slave to heir: a request for the break with established desctrutive patterns that are transgenerationally conveyed. The discussion of these Zones points toward the multiple aspects present in the expression of needs and to how imperative it is to reflect upon a reception that will contemplate the complexity of the dimensions that arise from the process of the construction of information.
