One of these factors is resiliency that causes constructive coping with stressful problems. Also, The Quality of Life that means the individual's sense of satisfaction from different areas of life and Subjective Well-Being that includes positive emotional experiences are involved in explaining high-risk behaviors such as substance abuse. So considering that drug addiction is one of the psychosocial and social harms associated with many negative consequences, it is necessary to study the factors that are involved in Substance abuse. Thus this research aimed to determine the Comparison of Resilience, Quality of Life, and subjective Well-Being in Men with opiate substance abuse and normal men of Rasht city. Methods: In the current research, two groups compared, and the research method was casual-comparative. The statistical population included all opium dependent men referring to addiction treatment centers in Rasht city. In this research, 200 men (100 males with Drug Abuse and 100 normal males) selected with available sampling method, then Groups were matched in terms of demographic characteristics. Participants responded to psychological Resilience scale, world health organization Quality of Life questionnaire, and subjective wellbeing scale. The research tools were valid and reliable. The Data analyzed by SPSS-21 software using multivariable analysis of variance. Results: The mean age of the addict group was 28. 90 years, with a standard deviation of 3. 34. Also, the mean age of the healthy group was 29. 79 years, with a standard deviation of 3. 91. The majority of the addict group (66%) and healthy group (64%) had a high school diploma. The mean scores of the addict group in Resilience, Quality of Life, and subjective Well-Being were 48. 36, 71. 57, and 258. 18 and the mean scores of the normal group in Resilience, Quality of Life and subjective Well-Being were 64. 32, 75. 37, and 304. 8. The results of the multivariable analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between groups In terms of resiliency and the scores of Men with opiate substance abuse were lower than normal men (F= 116. 49; p<0. 001). Also, the results of the multivariable analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between groups In terms of Quality of Life and the scores of Men with opiate substance abuse were lower than normal men (F=40. 12; p<0. 001). Finally, the results of the multivariable analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between groups In terms of subjective Well-Being and the scores of Men with opiate substance abuse were lower than normal men (F= 50. 99; p<0. 001). Conclusion: Low level of Resilience, Quality of Life, and Well-Being are factors that lead individuals toward more Drug Abuse. Psychological Resilience makes individuals more flexible for life-threatening events. The Quality of Life increases an individual's sense of satisfaction from different areas of life, and Subjective Well-Being increases the experience of positive emotions and happiness of individuals. The mentioned items are effective in improving individual and social actions. As a result, constructive coping strategies increase, and addiction tendency decreases. Therefore, suggest that courses based on psychological Resilience skills learning, subjective Well-Being promotion, and Quality of Life promotion be held in Addiction treatment centers.
