Abstract: With the continuous advancement of the market economy, national income has been improved to a certain extent, and the development of all aspects of the country has also risen to a new level. Under this circumstance, the drug industry has also been given opportunities for development. With the continuous advancement of information technology and the continuous improvement of consumption levels, new drugs are also constantly expanding and expanding. According to surveys conducted by relevant researchers, the current age of drug users is generally younger, and drug trafficking is often carried out in groups, such as sex workers. By analyzing the behaviors of drug addicts in the group, the researchers found that the drug-using subcultures are mostly behavioral betrayal caused by dissatisfaction with the mainstream culture of the society, which is a psychological state of escaping from real life. Next, it explains the drug abuse behaviors and interventions of the sex worker group from the perspective of subculture.

1. Introduction The emergence of drugs has a long history. In China, it was first appeared in the form of "opium",

which has plagued the country and the people and has been completely resisted by the state and the people. With the continuous development of the country, "opium" was transformed into heroin, and later, it was transformed into a new type of drug. New drugs are the assembly of drugs that appear on the market today, including "ecstasy, ice, k powder". New drugs first appeared in European countries, and later entered China, and then evolved step by step. In China, new types of drugs are spread among groups, such as sex workers. Next, the behaviors and interventions of sex workers' groups are explained in detail to facilitate better understanding.

2. The Overall Analysis of Drug Abuse behavior of Sex Workers According to relevant data, the age of domestic drug users tends to be younger, and there are

many sex workers. Next, the drug use behaviors of sex workers will be analyzed from various perspectives.

In the study of drug abuse groups, the main focus is on the causes of drug abuse and the analysis of interventions. The causes of drug abuse are mostly explored from personal reasons, family reasons, social environmental factors, and subcultures. First of all, for personal reasons, many people think that sex workers use drugs because they are curious about drugs, so they use drugs. However, curiosity can make sex workers start their first drug use experience, and they can’t be addicted, for personal reasons. It does not explain the behavior of drug addiction[1]; second, family reasons, some of the sex workers are actually engaged in this industry because of family reasons, which leads to the perception that sex workers use drugs because of family reasons. Or in order to release stress, or to relieve boredom, but not all sex workers are caused by family reasons, then there is no explanation for drug abuse in order to relieve stress; third, social reasons, some people think that sex workers group Drug abuse is caused by social reasons, social discrimination and exclusion, which leads to drug abuse. In addition, the sex workers’ work environment is prone to drugs, which leads to drug abuse. However, the overall analysis, social reasons are not the main cause of drug use by sex workers. To this end, you can try to analyze from a sub-cultural perspective.

3. The Analysis of Drug Abuse behavior of Sex Workers in the Perspective of Subculture The subculture under the subculture perspective refers to a compromise culture that is different

from the orthodox culture, has a unique view, behavior and needs in terms of expression and creation, but still maintains a certain connection with the orthodox culture, referred to as subculture.

(1) Basic situation of drug use by sex workers By investigating the sex workers' groups of sex workers, the researchers found that the group

was concentrated between 20 and 35 years old, more than half of them were women, and most of them were “after the 1980s”; in addition, on the cause of the first drug use. "Forty-inducing drugs because of curiosity" accounted for about 40%; "house-related causes of drug abuse" accounted for three-thousandths; "the work was tempted to take drugs" accounted for more than half, and other reasons accounted for about 10% That is to say, after statistical data, it can be found that in the sex work group, the spread of drugs is mostly dominated by women after the "80s", and in education, the degree of education is generally low, which is very close to the nature of work. The relationship between drug use and the cause of drug use is often caused by the environment and the circle of work, which leads to the formation of a unique language system, communication system and a distinctive drug-using subculture system[2].

(2) A unique language system for drug abuse among sex workers From the perspective of subculture, although sex workers use drug groups to maintain certain

uniqueness, they have the same drug communication language among groups, such as “high”. The words that are formed are common and used as common words for expressing pleasure when taking drugs. For example, "skating", the common words used when smoking ice, is a common language among sex workers, and in many cases is also different. The unique linguistic signs of the group[3]; in addition, these words are also separated from the original meaning when they are used, and the group creates new meanings, which makes the difference and other groups through the combination of language and drugs, and Promote pleasure to another stage.

(3) Behavior of sex workers in drug abuse Due to the characteristics of the new drug itself and the emergence of the exclusive language

system from the perspective of subculture, coupled with the nature and occasion of the work of sex workers, it is very easy for sex workers to form group drug abuse under a series of "favorable" conditions. .First of all, the unique and secret circle, the privacy of sex workers' work, and the characteristics that can only be accessed through introduction, make drug use behavior easy to spread through interpersonal relationships and work; secondly, new drugs have a strong entertainment nature, enhance People's sense of pleasure, which makes drugs easier to spread; that is, only through sex workers and corresponding behaviors can be admitted to the group organization, which is very easy for a specific circle, group, it is very It is easy to promote the behavior of group drug abuse.

4. The Intervention of Sex Workers in Drug Abuse Behavior (1) Breaking the sub-culture of sex workers and promoting the development of a harmonious

society For the sex workers group, drug abuse is largely a popular, fashionable, and group-like behavior.

It not only releases stress, but also creates a sense of pleasure. The exclusive subculture formed by it is also promoted. One of the important reasons for its addiction; in order to be able to intervene in this group of drug abuse behaviors and promote the development of a harmonious society, it is necessary to break the sub-culture of sex workers. To this end, the following actions can be carried out: First, the relevant departments conduct standardized management of the common workplaces of sex workers, carry out strict control and sanctions on the behavior of gathering people, and eliminate the spread of drug-using subcultures on a large scale; Relevant departments should increase the propaganda and education of drug hazards, carry out poster propaganda on occasions where sex workers often appear, and try their best to reduce the influence of drug-using subcultures, and at the same time reconstruct the orthodox cultural ideas; Breaking the sub-culture of sex

workers[4]. (2) Differentiating the drug-using groups of sex workers and reducing the occurrence of relapse For the sex workers group, the characteristics of their own work, nature and new drugs have

increased the emergence of drug abuse, and the situation of relapse is endless. For this reason, researchers believe that society, family, friends can be used. The community has assisted the sex workers to take drugs to detoxification, to differentiate them, and to achieve the purpose of reducing the relapse rate. The specific implementation methods are as follows: First, through family, friends, community intervention, blocking group members The connection, in order to achieve the purpose of differentiation; Second, the sex workers drug users are divided into different social groups, with the help of other regular groups, to assist them in detoxification, isolation of drug users; Third, reduce social exclusion, reduce Sex workers have hindered the reintroduction of people into the society; through the above actions, the purpose of reducing relapse is achieved[5] .

5. Conclusion Through the above specific analysis of sex workers' drug users, I believe that many people have

more knowledge about new drugs and the group. From the perspective of subculture, there are reasons for the occurrence of this group behavior, and through the analysis of the drug-using subculture of the group, we also found a way to intervene in the drug-using behavior of the group. I hope everyone can contribute after understanding the intervention method. Give a strength, and then help it to the right path and contribute to building a harmonious society.
