Everything you think you know about addiction is wrong | Johann Hari

What really causes addiction — to everything from cocaine to smart-phones? And how can we overcome it? Johann Hari has seen our current methods fail firsthand, as he has watched loved ones struggle to manage their addictions. He started to wonder why we treat addicts the way we do — and if there might be a better way. As he shares in this deeply personal talk, his questions took him around the world, and unearthed some surprising and hopeful ways of thinking about an age-old problem.

Seeing Drug and Alcohol Addiction in a New Light

We need to stop blaming addicts and start treating them. Right now, our treatment options are severely limited and often misguided. In this talk, Ed Stevenson passionately describes why we desperately need more treatment centers and better treatment options if we are to help our friends and family who struggle with addictions.

LEARNING ENGAGEMENT

Describe how the DSM-5 is used and who uses it.

Think about discussion in FQHCs and try to schedule an appointment at an FQHC near (Est) you.

What is that process like and how long must you wait for an appointment?

If you truly needed these mental health services quickly, would the wait time you were given be appropriate?
