Chemical dependency and its denial aspects are the heart and soul of one of, if not the greatest, horrific problems in our society, yesterday, today and probably many tomorrows to come! How do we deal with it? Well, the most popular world known strategies would be through the following: AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) NA (Narcotics Anonymous) And even GA (Gambling Anonymous) The disease is incurable but arrestable using the aforementioned twelve-step programs. Well, guess what? After entering an advanced substance drug rehab program in the fall of 1985, I began to slowly realize and learn a better way (especially from a neurological standpoint) to get back on track (so to speak) and even formulated a Super 7-Step Program that works even better! I got it copyrighted through Washington, DC, and you really do need to read it and take it to heart. I won't say all, but most MDs don't even know this!

Well, guess what? After entering an advanced substance drug rehab program in the fall of 1985, I began to slowly realize and learn a better way (especially from a neurological standpoint) to get back on track (so to speak) and even formulated a Super 7-Step Program that works even better! I got it copyrighted through Washington, DC, and you really do need to read it and take it to heart. I won't say all, but most MDs don't even know this! Hey! What's up? I, Robert E. Bunyard, MS, was also known as Cowboy Bob-tour guide at the Grand Canyon in Northern Arizona for fifteen years! Being a baby boomer after World War II, I was fortunate enough to be a Psychologist in the US Army with only a BA degree! During the Vietnam era, the biggest test in life (then and now) was notifying next of kin, that their son or husband would be back in a box. God help us. After this two-year stint in the US Army, I got an MS in counseling at University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and spent the next twelve years as (1) a prison counselor, (2) a high school guidance counselor, and (3) licensed drug abuse counselor. After a two-and-a-half-year marriage, I was a professional rodeo cowboy for six years, ending up in a drug rehab facility (nine weeks). Then I was a highly decorated coach driver in San Antonio, Texas, for the next decade. Three songs and one Bible Scripture have continued to assist me in dealing with this God-given life and chemistry dependency (Satan's right arm). They are "Mama Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys," "Why Me, Lord?" and "How Great Thou Art." Plus, the Bible verses Proverbs 3:5-6. Memorize the latter, and may God bless you!

Patterns and cycles of cocaine use in subcultures and the popular culture. Drug treatment from a marketing, supply-and-demand perspective, including an analysis of policy options.

All across the United States, individuals, families, communities, and health care systems are struggling to cope with substance use, misuse, and substance use disorders. Substance misuse and substance use disorders have devastating effects, disrupt the future plans of too many young people, and all too often, end lives prematurely and tragically. Substance misuse is a major public health challenge and a priority for our nation to address. The effects of substance use are cumulative and costly for our society, placing burdens on workplaces, the health care system, families, states, and communities. The Report discusses opportunities to bring substance use disorder treatment and mainstream health care systems into alignment so that they can address a person's overall health, rather than a substance misuse or a physical health condition alone or in isolation. It also provides suggestions and recommendations for action that everyone-individuals, families, community leaders, law enforcement, health care professionals, policymakers, and researchers-can take to prevent substance misuse and reduce its consequences.

Estimates indicate that as many as 1 in 4 Americans will experience a mental health problem or will misuse alcohol or drugs in their lifetimes. These disorders are among the most highly stigmatized health conditions in the United States, and they remain barriers to full participation in society in areas as basic as education, housing, and employment. Improving the lives of people with mental health and substance abuse disorders has been a priority in the United States for more than 50 years. The Community Mental Health Act of 1963 is considered a major turning point in America's efforts to improve behavioral healthcare. It ushered in an era of optimism and hope and laid the groundwork for the consumer movement and new models of recovery. The consumer movement gave voice to people with mental and substance use disorders and brought their perspectives and experience into national discussions about mental health. However over the same 50-year period, positive change in American public attitudes and beliefs about mental and substance use disorders has lagged behind these advances. Stigma is a complex social phenomenon based on a relationship between an attribute and a stereotype that assigns undesirable labels, qualities, and behaviors to a person with that attribute. Labeled individuals are then socially devalued, which leads to inequality and discrimination. This report contributes to national efforts to understand and change attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that can lead to stigma and discrimination. Changing stigma in a lasting way will require coordinated efforts, which are based on the best possible evidence, supported at the national level with multiyear funding, and planned and implemented by an effective coalition of representative stakeholders. Ending Discrimination Against People with Mental and Substance Use Disorders: The Evidence for Stigma Change explores stigma and discrimination faced by individuals with mental or substance use disorders and recommends effective strategies for reducing stigma and encouraging people to seek treatment and other supportive services. It offers a set of conclusions and recommendations about successful stigma change strategies and the research needed to inform and evaluate these efforts in the United States.

Motivation is key to substance use behavior change. Counselors can support clients' movement toward positive changes in their substance use by identifying and enhancing motivation that already exists. Motivational approaches are based on the principles of person-centered counseling. Counselors' use of empathy, not authority and power, is key to enhancing clients' motivation to change. Clients are experts in their own recovery from SUDs. Counselors should engage them in collaborative partnerships. Ambivalence about change is normal. Resistance to change is an expression of ambivalence about change, not a client trait or characteristic. Confrontational approaches increase client resistance and discord in the counseling relationship. Motivational approaches explore ambivalence in a nonjudgmental and compassionate way.

Today, most substance abuse treatment is administered by community-based organizations. If providers could readily incorporate the most recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of addiction and treatment, the treatment would be much more effective and efficient. The gap between research findings and everyday treatment practice represents an enormous missed opportunity at this exciting time in this field. Informed by real-life experiences in addiction treatment including workshops and site visits, Bridging the Gap Between Practice and Research examines why research remains remote from treatment and makes specific recommendations to community providers, federal and state agencies, and other decision-makers. The book outlines concrete strategies for building and disseminating knowledge about addiction; for linking research, policy development, and everyday treatment implementation; and for helping drug treatment consumers become more informed advocates. In candid language, the committee discusses the policy barriers and the human attitudesâ€"the stigma, suspicion, and skepticismâ€"that often hinder progress in addiction treatment. The book identifies the obstacles to effective collaboration among the research, treatment, and policy sectors; evaluates models to address these barriers; and looks in detail at the issue from the perspective of the community-based provider and the researcher.

Through the vivid, true stories of five people who journeyed into and out of addiction, a renowned neuroscientist explains why the "disease model" of addiction is wrong and illuminates the path to recovery. The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease, and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do-seek pleasure and relief-in a world that's not cooperating. As a result, most treatment based on the disease model fails. Lewis shows how treatment can be retooled to achieve lasting recovery. This is enlightening and optimistic reading for anyone who has wrestled with addiction either personally or professionally.
