In this research, we aim to study the experience of the Recovered Female Addicts in terms of the Disruption of Social Relations in the city of Qom by adopting a Qualitative Approach. The data were collected through in-depth interview and observing 31 female addicts entering the Women's Addiction Treatment Camps in Qom. Thematic analysis was used to examine the data. After the analysis of the obtained in-depth interviews, five major categories were determined: the numerous abortive attempts to get a job, absence of an employment quota, misjudgments and being labeled, considered incapable of acting responsibly were categorized as intense sex-base discrimination in social relations; contemptuousness on the part of acquaintances and avoiding family meetings as reproach and humiliation; unpreparedness for motherhood and inability in playing out childhood roles as disruption of social relations; being considered untrustworthy by relatives and friends as cutting with friends and change of address and fabricating the past as concealment.
