Alcohol is a psychotropic substance that has a depressant effect on the nervous system and causes alcohol dependence in those who abuse them, recognized by the WHO as progressive, incurable and fatal disease, but each year is growing worldwide. This study aimed to analyze the social representations of alcoholic women about alcoholism and its implications for self care, outlining its profile and characterizing the images (objections) and the senses (anchors) that alcoholic women have about alcoholism. To achieve this purpose a qualitative study was carried out and the method of Social Representation Theory was adopted. As a field of research for the study we had a few groups of Alcoholics Anonymous, participating in the study 12 alcoholic women, who were attending assiduously anonymous alcoholic support groups. The data collection was done individually, following an interview script with questions of free association of words and semi-structured questions, as well as a socio economic and cultural questionnaire, so that we could know the women who participated in the research. Data collection took place from July to December 2016. In order to work on the information collected, we chose thematic analysis, following six stages in the analysis. At first the data were transcribed, later codified so that it could identify in all other transcriptions homogeneous and significant results for the objective, allowing the creation and grouping of possible themes, the grouping of themes gained meaning in which it could understand its statement, Thus writing the data of this study. After analyzing the data, we obtained five categories that gave life to the categories of discussion: Alcoholization: from pleasure to reified knowledge of disease, where the search for sobriety led the women involved in the research to seek to know the social object that Affected. Woman: her rooted mother destroyed in which we identified the objectification of all the family consequences that alcoholism caused. Demoralization of female alcoholism: search for empowerment where the stigmatizing judgment of female alcoholism is presented, experienced and shared by these women, today seek to deconstruct the imagery that society has built against them. Daily struggles against the pleasures of alcohol, where the confrontation presented by these women is presented, in order to avoid a return to alcoholism, so they avoid avoiding the first drink, but also show that several aspects can contribute to the disfigurement, such as the media; And lastly The representation of self care as the starting point for nursing care where it presents that the search for health care as methods used to care for themselves, lost with alcoholization. Emphasizing the importance of nursing care to promote health education and strengthen self care. However, it is necessary to the nursing comprehension about the problem that involves alcoholism so that it can provide the care that the AA can not provide, that the sooner realized, the smaller the chances of psychological, physical and social damages, thus the greater the chances of Successful treatment.
