On Wednesday, news could tell that Sophie Elise has been addicted to the drug Xanax for several years. The desire for the sedative was so strong that she gradually began to buy it on the streets of Oslo. Gradually, the doses became so large that they corresponded to 120 mg of Valium. Enough to break a grown man. In the end, he decided to enter rehabilitation. In retrospect, her inbox has been filled with messages from people with drug problems, who are now considering seeking help. As she did. – I have received several messages from people who have dared to take “the first step”. It means admitting to yourself and someone you trust that you have a problem, says Sophie Elise in an email to news. Few stand out Arild Knutsen, chairman of the Association for humane drug policy, thinks it is very positive that such a public figure as Sophie Elise dares to be open. Arild Knutsen is a former drug addict and has fought for a more humane drug policy for many years. Photo: Marit Sirum-Eikre \/ news – That Sophie Elise stands up is admirable. It can lead to less negative attitudes towards people who become addicted to drugs and medicine, he says. He points to the fact that most people imagine drug addicts as tired and broken-down people with a syringe in their hand. It is not like that. – There are only a few who are heavy users. The vast majority never come forward about their addiction because of the prejudices we have against drug addicts, he continued. Alone and lonely This was also the case for Sophie Elise. The flu person lied to family and friends because she was ashamed of what she did. She, like many others, had to deal with the problem all by herself. – You have no one to call either, even if you actually have people you could have called, she elaborates in Lindmo. Sophie Elise talks about the shame surrounding being addicted. The aim of telling the truth was to encourage others with addiction to ask for help. Sanctions and punishments This is something Arild Knutsen knows all about. – Young people feel that they have nowhere to turn. Most are met with disappointment, judgement, sanctions and punishment, says Knutsen. Therefore, he believes that it is important that the authorities make arrangements for young people to be able to talk to someone and get good advice without being punished for it. – Far too many experience being deprived of their driver’s licence, work and education, and the opportunity to travel around the world, if they seek help, he says. Must be there for the vulnerable The debate around the new drug reform has also led to less stigma, according to Knutsen. – The number of drug cases is dropping drastically. This means that the police have taken two steps back. The task for society is to deploy health workers so that one can take two steps forward, he believes: – We must be there for the vulnerable groups, concludes Knutsen.
