The Voice of Addiction“I don’t have an ‘off’ switch…one is too many and a thousand is not enough.”
“Incomprehensible demoralization”
“It’s a disease that tells you you don’t have a disease.”
“I really did not get how I could be an addict when I had been successful in all other areas of my life – it didn’t make sense. However, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t moderate. I just couldn’t control it.”
“My addiction took everything from me.”
“My substance use was relief from the pain, but it quit working.”

Definitions of Addiction
ASAM: Addiction is a primary, chronic disease of brain reward, motivation, memory and related circuitry. Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological, psychological, social and spiritual manifestations. This is reflected in an individual pathologically pursuing reward and/or relief by substance use and other behaviors. http://www.asam.org/for-the-public/definition-of-addiction
Gabor Maté: Any repeated behavior, substance related or not, in which a person feels compelled to persist, regardless of its negative impact on his or her life and the lives of others.

been caused or made worse by use• Needing more of the substance to get desired effect (tolerance)*• Development of withdrawal symptoms; relieved by taking more of the substance.*
Mild (2-3) Moderate (4-5) Severe (6+)
*Not counted in SUD diagnosis if symptoms of tolerance or withdrawal occur during appropriate medical treatment with prescribed medications.

Policy/Environmental Drivers of SUD and Treatment
Alcohol Dependence was last among 30 medical conditions in proportion of care received as evidence would recommend
McGlynn E. et al. NEJM, 2003
![Page 11: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Like other chronic illnesses…
• Genetic, personal-choice, and environmental factors • Behavioral change is an important part of treatment• Relapse and medication adherence issues• Comply with treatment and medications = better
outcomes• No reliable cure• Older, employed with stable families = better outcomes• Reasonably predictable course

A Chronic Illness Exacerbated by Stigma
• People with SUDs have had a history of being ignored
• War on drugs = war on drug addicts
• Acute episodic response has been the historical treatment paradigm
• AA was a response to the lack of treatment options and sustains stigma and marginalization through its anonymity
![Page 14: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
We are moving from saying, “this is a personal failure...”
To saying, “there is a light at the end of this tunnel…”
![Page 15: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
“And if you want to, we can walk towards it together…”

The Hook• The pharmacologic explanation of addiction• Addiction attributable to intrinsic property of
the substanceThe Cage• Family history of SUD• Co-occurring MH Disorders• ACES• Social Determinants of HealthThe Empty Glass• Unquenchable need for relief• Often substituted
![Page 18: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

“Nothing is addictive within itself” Gabor Mate’
![Page 20: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Remedy Seeking• Addictive behaviors are a way of controlling an experience
through external remedies• No external remedy improves a condition without internal or
external consequences• Differentiate between the disease model vs a normal
response to pain
“We must acknowledge what is right about addiction, not what is wrong…”
Gabor Maté
Remedies provide…1. A sense of control2. A sense of fulfillment3. Relief from real pain4. A way to increase the threshold for tolerance
![Page 21: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Remedy-Seeking and the Thin Line• Seen as a way towards love and vitality• Replaces genuine intimacy, compassion or honest
endeavors to thrive• Paramount to other ways to self remedy• Compulsiveness • Impairment • Persistence
The question to be asking is not “why the addiction….”
![Page 22: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
But, “why the pain?” (Maté)
• Marginalization• Racism• Poverty• Lack of access• Adverse history• Socio-economic inequality• Distress of daily living• Loss• Physical pain• Emotional pain
![Page 23: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
SUD Treatment: Check the Cage, Minimize the Hooks and Fill the Glass
• Behavioral Treatments: CBT, DBT, ACT, Seeking Safety, Contingency Management, etc
• Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) for Opioid and Alcohol Use Disorders
• Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care
And when treatment is not an option…• Harm Reduction – a palliative approach
![Page 24: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Substance Use Disorder MedicationsUnderutilized because of Stigma
Alcohol Use Disorder1.Naltrexone2.Acamprosate3.Disulfiram
Opioid Use Disorder1.Methadone2.Buprenorphine3.Naltrexone
Barriers to MAT• Lack of understanding of the medications• Organizational philosophy/staff beliefs about use of
medications; • Cost of medications• Lack of appropriate staffing in treatment centers
![Page 25: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Harm Reduction
• Meeting our patients where they are at
• Medication Assisted Treatment is not harm reduction
• Respect• Honoring personal
autonomy• Reduction in drug
related harm • Comfort Care
![Page 26: The Hook, The Cage and the Empty Glass Substance Use Disorders 101 for Primary Care Providers Ariel Singer, MPH – Northwest Addiction Technology Transfer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e175503460f94b03691/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Before any treatment can occur a full Biopsychosocial assessment must take place.
Data is gathered in 6 dimensions to determine the appropriate level of care: ↓Dimension 1 – Acute Intoxication and/or Withdrawal PotentialDimension 2 – Biomedical Conditions and ComplicationsDimension 3 – Emotional, Behavioral or Cognitive Conditions and ComplicationsDimension 4 - Readiness to ChangeDimension 5 – Relapse, Continued Use or Continued Problem PotentialDimension 6 – Recovery Environment
Is there a DSM – 5 diagnosis based on a thorough assessment?
Example: Alcohol Use Disorder – Mild, Moderate, or Severe

Continuum of Care – patients enter treatment at a level appropriate for their needs and step up for more
intense treatment or down for less intense treatment.
• Level 1
• Level 2
• Level 3
• Outpatient Treatment 1 treatment encounter/week• Intensive Outpatient
Treatment 3-5 treatment encounters/week• Residential/Inpatient 2 weeks to one year

What was important about residential?
“It gave me a safe and structured place to go through withdrawal. It gave me the first glimpse of myself sober – the good and the not so good – that I had had in over a decade. I went in to residential thinking my only problem was an addiction to meth. I came out convinced I was an addict.
Writing a list of ten insane behaviors, which had to be whittled down from about ten thousand, convinced me that addiction was a disease, because there is no way any sane person could have done all the things I did and made all the choices I did, night after night, year after year, for my next hit.
Residential treatment also gave me a first taste of what it means to follow direction, trust in my counselors and guides, and to connect to other addicts.

What was your treatment experience in an outpatient program?“Well, obviously it provided a safe space for the months it took for my emotions and brain to calm down, and to engage many of the issues and problems that fueled my using in the first place. It taught me what it means to be honest and to value and respect the honesty of others, to let everyone have their own process and honor that. It has been the most thorough schooling in addiction I can imagine; every day in group brings a list of lessons about how this disease works, the different forms it can take with different drugs of choice or different people, the unique challenges addicts face, the skills they can use, and the stages of addiction or recovery. It provided needed structure and a more directly engaged process than twelve-step groups, though I think those groups are absolutely necessary for developing community, finding support, and rebuilding a new way of life.”

One of the biggest challenges in early recovery is ________ ?
Staying focused. Making it through the emotions. And the confusion. Being told again and again, “More will be revealed.”

“The results of your questionnaire indicate that your use of alcohol puts you at risk from problems due to drinking. Of course, any decisions regarding a change are yours to make. As your doctor, I would like to share some advice with you on modifying your drinking habits – would that be ok? I want you to know that we have a lot of options to help you, should you decide to make a change.. I know that change can be difficult and at the same time, I am confident that if you decide to change you will be able to do so. Would you like to talk about some options that we have for supporting you in this?”
