The vanish of someone in the family nucleus is a phenomenon which generate stress and suffer. Uncertainty about the whereabouts of the person, adds to the anguish and fear to know if he is alive or dead. The absence associated with drug addiction is not much studied and there comes the unrest to know how families experience the comings and goings and the disappearance of his dependent familiar member. It is a study of qualitative approach using as a method oral history, which aimed to understand the ambiguous loss in the family from the absence of the chemical dependency. As techniques for data collection they were used semi-structured interviews, conducted in the family´s home, and participant observation. Collaborated seven families with one drug addicted member vanished or in the process of comings and goings. To analyze the data it was used steps of pre-analysis, which began with the process of transcreation, exploration of the material, treatment and interpretation of the results, which make up the thematic analysis. The collected data was grouped by similarity and the findings that make up the analysis were described as the prototype of Ambiguous Loss in the Family Stress Model. As reported in the literature, the data showed that families experience both types of ambiguous loss simultaneously; the perception of the family followed the path of evolution of chemical dependency and the gradual withdrawal from the dependent member, where ambiguous feelings were experienced; internal and external resources were deployed enabling the development of facing strategies as well as the progression of unresolved grief where the high degree of stress in the family was manifested itself by means of conflicts and diseases. Data from the study showed changes in individual, familiar and social fields faced by the family from the absence of the chemically dependent member. Moreover, this study highlights the need to develop care, involving the preparation and training of professionals engaged in caring those families.
