I need to outline the sociological and psycological defention of addiction, and include any other information relevant to drug addiction.

The presentaton needs to take10 minutes, and can include any film.tv snippets that could be relevant, also any advertisments, opinions, quotes or especially peoples personal experiences would be handy.

These can be experiences of either being a drug addict in the past or present, or even family, friends or people who have dealt/ worked with addicts.

Information on behaviours, habits , effects on their lives etc would be interesting and useful for my study.

thanks for all your help :)

Billy was the third of loving but busy parents. When he was growing up, he thought that his parents favored his older siblings. When Billy was four, his parents divorced, and he remained with his father. His brother .and sister moved with his mother to a distant city. Billy rarely saw them. Feeling inadequate in raising his son alone, Billy’s father responded by providing the child with costly toys and frequent trips to amusement parks. As Billy grew older and attended school, he had trouble focusing and was taken to a doctor for an appraisal of his abilities and disabilities. Billy’s medical evaluation showed symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, but Billy’s father dismissed the diagnosis. Because of these difficulties in school, Billy had trouble making friends and was ridiculed by his classmates. This diminished his self-confidence. By the time Billy was an adolescent, he had difficulty forming lasting relationships despite his expertise in athletics. He was capable of high academic achievement, but his grades were below average. Teacher reports frequently cited his excessive need for attention, he felt lost and doomed to failure.

I’ve got a challenge for you guys, try answering the following questions from a humanist approach, Psychoanalytical approach, behaviorist approach, cognitive approach, and a biological approach based on the case study above.

1) What is the basic cause of Billy’s problems?
2) What will happen to Billy?
3) What steps could Billy take to improve his life????


Remember, Psychoanalytical approach emphasizes that a person’s behavior is determined by primal drives and the experiences of early childhood. Behaviorist approach emphasizes the connection between stimulus/response and behavior/reward. Also, that a person’s behavior is determined by the actions that were rewarded or punished. Cognitive approach emphasizes that a person’s difficulties often stem from false perceptions of reality. Biological Approach emphasizes the genetic, medical, and neurological components of the person. Theorists believe that theses biological factors influence behavior. Hormonal changes, brain anomalies, and neurochemical differences help determine a person’s actions and subsequent changes in behavior.

to be submissive to thier boyfriends/husbands?
Want to be housewives
want men to take the lead and be head of the household
How do feminists view other women who don't agree that men taking the lead is wrong?

For example, last year I dreamed that I was waiting for my sister to come and take me to a Yankee game. The next day she called me and invited me to go with her to a Mets game. (Okay, different team, but otherwise a dream come true!)

Many years ago, I dreamed that I delivered Christmas presents to a Hispanic family and a little boy kissed me on the cheek. A couple of months later, my brother and I answered a Santa letter from a Hispanic family in the Bronx, and one of their little boys kissed me on the cheek. I turned to my brother and said, "I had a dream about this!"

Anyone else out there want to share their dream-come-true stories?

About three days ago I dreamed I was in midtown Manhattan, near Lincoln Center; I think I was looking for a film. (I live in Queens, NY.) I also dreamed I was looking through a catalogue, looking for bronze jewelry or bronze medallions to give away as Christmas gifts. What does this mean, in your opinion?

I am curious why would he deny any childhood issues. He is insecure, has trouble with expressing anger, defensive, demanding, etc. We know that our behavioural issues stem from our childhood. Okay, I know his parents and I really like them. One observation I made was that his mom is totally "emotionally flat" (his sister confirmed that their mom showed little compassion/affection towards them). His dad once hit his grandchild with a newspaper on the head for a joke (I witnessed it). Other than that - nothing. Isn't it bizzarre? I am no wallflower, but still trying to figure out how come he turned out to kick me in the butt. Should I be scared? I have to say that our relationship has from bad to death and I constantly worry "will he kick me again or not", "should I be scared or is it a one-off"? Help!

Recently when I was driving at night with my cousin, she noticed something I kept doing. Everytime I pass a house at night with its lights on and curtains open I slow down and totally gawk. I don't know what I'm looking for, or why I even look for that matter.

Do you like to look too? Do you know why? Have you ever seen anything interesting??

I also like to go to open houses (especially in my neighborhood) even though I am not in the market to buy. I usually have something prescripted to tell the agent, like oh we're looking for more space or such.

I also go to estate sales just to see the inside of the home! Sometimes I'll buy some junk so I don't look obvious.

Anyone else guilty of this voyeuristic/nosey behaviour?

There seem to be so many labels attached to different stereotypes these days: Punk, goth, emo, prep,straightedge, ect. What's more is that there seem to be tons of kids attaching themselves to these labels with great effort (style of dress, hairstyle, ect), and yet they claim to loath the labels themselves...What is your opinion on labels and stereotypes in general?

i don't know why. their eyes seem to glaze over, they look sleepy and sometimes they yawn. it happens even at the first few sentences we speak. and i swear i wasn't droning on about stuff. it;s like the connection between us dies and we fall asleep. or is it just my own perception or imagination?

how do I stop ppl from getting sleepy from talking to me?

Does that have any significant meaning?
I don't exactly remember what we were doing, but we were just standing around or something. Then I said/did something and he replied with a "I really love you".
Any thoughts?

1-Give an example of anxiety from your own experience or which that you have observed in someone else.


2-Describe at least one way that anxiety can be successfully managed .
