Aim: Although affected family members of individuals suffering from addiction (AFMs)show elevated levels of stress and strain they have been not adequately addressed by research and care To date, there are no reliable data on the effects of the social restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic on burden and care offers for AFMs Method: International survey of experts and a survey of treatment providers from Germany Results: While mainly an increase in strain due to the effects of the pandemic regarding increased risk behavior by the addicted family member and an increase of interpersonal conflicts is expected, also some possible positive effects on subgroups of AFMs were reported Overall, a decline in supply for relatives and a trend for reduced demand for help by AFMs were reported from treatment providers Conclusions: Effects of Addiction on the families should routinely be assessed in studies on addictive and affective disorders as well as in studies on domestic violence Evidence-based support for AFMs should be offered nationwide and digital as well Networking with other psychosocial offers should be optimized
