The fourth podcast continues to elaborate on various issues related to the topic of substance-based disorders. This particular podcast will continue to define terms as needed, as well as introduce some new concepts about substance abuse and dependency. The constructs of “choice”, “responsibility”, and “personal power” will be brought up, along with the demystification of common misconceptions (i.e., the so-called “disease model”). Various assessment and treatment models will also be introduced and discussed more completely in the next podcast, as will common co-morbid conditions.
