Young psychoactive substance users in social precarity are vulnerable to a range of health and social issues. Time perspective is one aspect to consider in supporting change. This study draws on the views expressed by young adults to portray their subjective experience of time, how this perception evolves and its implications for their substance use and socio-occupational integration trajectories. The sample includes 23 young psychoactive substance users ( M = 24.65 years old; 83% male) in social precarity frequenting a community-based harm reduction centre. Thematic analysis of the interviews reveals the past to be synonymous with disappointment and disillusionment, but also a constructive force. Participants expressed their present-day material and human needs as well as their need for recognition and a sense of control over their own destiny. Their limited ability to project into the future was also discussed. Avenues on how support to this population might be adapted are suggested.

Social studies have many variations because society is not a single object. Social change is a phenomenon of community construction that has a variety of variations. Development is a word used to describe processes and efforts to enhance economic, political, cultural, social, and so on. With such an understanding "development" is aligned with the word "social change." Along with development theory there are other social change theories such as socialism, dependensia, or other theories. Therefore, many people call developmental theory as developmentism. Thus such theories reject theories, such as the theory of community-based development, or even sustainable development and are alternatives to developmentism, but other variations of the ideology of developmentism.Kajian sosial memiliki macam variasi karena masyarakat bukanlah objek yang tunggal. Perubahan sosial merupakan fenomena konstruksi masyarakat yang memiliki ragam yang bervariasi. Pembangunan merupakan suatu kata yang digunakan untuk menjelaskan proses dan usaha untuk menimgkatkan kehidupan ekonomi, politik, budaya, sosial, dan sebagainya. Dengan pemahaman seperti itu “pembangunan” disejajarkan dengan kata “perubahan sosial”. Bersamaan dengan teori pembangunan terdapat teori-teori perubahan sosial lainnya seperti sosialisme, dependensia, ataupun teori lain. Oleh karena itu banyak orang menamakan teori pembangunan sebagai pembangunanisme (developmentalism). Dengan demikian teori-teori seperti ini menolak teori-teori, seperti teori pembangunan berbasis masyarakat, atau bahkan pembangunan berkelanjutan (sustainable development) dan merupakan alternatif dari pembangunanisme, melainkan variasi-variasi lain dari ideologi pembangunanisme.
