Women with normal lives who drink and take pills to cope with everyday life: "My husband didn't find out. I used it secretly, at home, so that no one would see me".

In March, taking advantage of the echoes of 8M, several entities have focused on a profile of women with addictions. The Ministry of Health says that 16% of women between 15 and 64 years old consume lorazepam and company, compared to 103% of men. They also explain that according to the reports of the National Drug Plan, women only surpass men in one specific consumption: hypnosedatives.
