Harvard University Addiction & Substance Use Disorders
Question Description
I’m working on a nursing writing question and need guidance to help me learn.
- When you talk about addiction and substance use, what words, terms, or phrases do you use that are stigmatizing and reflect a negative bias?
- What are your personal beliefs about why people become addicted or use substances?
- Are you more accepting of certain types of addictions more than others (such as addiction to illicit substances versus addiction to “legal” or prescribed substances)? Why?
- Do you believe that some addictions are easier to recover from than others? Why?
- Do you believe some people are beyond help?
- Do you believe that certain substance use treatment approaches are better than others? What are your thoughts on abstinence-based approaches versus medication-assisted treatment?
- Is using medication-assisted treatment (such as Suboxone or methadone) essentially replacing one drug with another?
- What are your beliefs about recovery and how that looks (such as behaviors, actions, and so on)?
