Natural disasters such as floods, storms, and earthquakes as inevitable events sometimes threaten the physical and mental health of various communities around the world (1). If severe, these misfortunes can lead to the death of people and the destruction of residential areas in cities and villages. After the disaster, the survivors of the catastrophe have been shocked and tortured due to the deaths of their relatives for several months. Among the bereaved, certain groups generally encounter more compatibility issues. Children, elderly, physically and mentally handicapped, and drug and alcohol addicts are among the groups (2). These people are often incapable of crisis management and require an effective support system (3). Unlike children, the elderly, and handicaps, generally considered to be officially supported, after a natural disaster, drug addicts are considered to be a forgotten group.
