Abstract The present research aimed to explore feelings of loneliness among substance abusers of type A and B personality. The study shows the difference between substance abusers and normal individuals. The sample consisted of N= 120 participants, substance abusers (60) and normal individuals (60). Their age range was 25-40 years. Only male substance abusers were included in the study. Demographic variables were also analyzed. The study shows the difference between substance abusers and normal individuals. Findings show that normal individuals have less loneliness level in type B as compared to drug-addicted type A personality. It was also found that loneliness is directly correlated to type A personality and indirectly correlated to type B personality of drug addicts.
