Substance and Process Addictions

1. Reflecting on television shows, movies and/or media representations of substance abuse and addiction, how is addiction and recovery portrayed in the media? What themes do you notice? How are different substances and types of users portrayed? How might these images and messages impact clients in recovery?

2. How much room should there be in treatment for sub-cultural groups to shape their own definitions of taboos and addictions (for example about dieting, exercise, sex, or work behaviors)? How might it be more challenging to address process addictions with clients who have markedly different backgrounds than you?
