Atención y craving o ganas compulsivas. Avances en su conceptualización y su implicación en la prevención de recaídas

Jesús Blasco, José Martínez-Raga, Emelia Carrasco, Javier Didia-Attas

Resumen


El craving, ganas compulsivas, deseo intenso o compulsión irrefrenable a consumir es uno de los síntomas centrales en el síndrome de dependencia y de gran importancia en las recaídas al abuso de alcohol u otras drogas. El presente trabajo revisa la relación entre la atención, los procesos atencionales y el fenómeno del craving. Se abordan los diferentes elementos integrantes de la atención y en particular de la relevancia de la atención selectiva sobre el craving y las etapas iniciales de la recaída. Se revisan las estrategias psicológicas eficaces frente al craving, en especial en el modelo cognitivo conductual de la recaída y en la terapia de prevención de recaídas. Finalmente, se discuten las características de la denominada terapia atencional, basada en el “mindfulness” o “atención consciente” y su potencial utilidad en el abordaje de los trastornos adictivos en general y en el craving en concreto.
