Substance Abuse in Older Adults
[ send me this essay ]
A 17 page paper examining the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in adults over the age of 60. Though increasing numbers of aging baby boomers may usher in the occurrence of many more cases of abuse of illicit drugs, currently it is prescription drugs and alcohol that cause the greatest number of substance abuse cases among those over the age of 60. Some seniors become drug abusers unwittingly and insidiously, often through misuse of prescription drugs and lack of knowledge of the drugs’ intended actions. Alcohol abuse can occur for the same kinds of reasons, given that its effects are more pronounced in the presence of the effects of age. Seniors likely need to be educated in these factors at the same time that they are being urged to consistently take their blood pressure medication or check their blood sugar. Whatever the reason that seniors cross the line into substance abuse, intervention needs to be thoughtful and sensitive. Includes and abstract and a 1-page outline. Bibliography lists 19 sources.

Suggestibility In The Child Witness: Cognitive, Social, Motivational And Biological Factors
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Credibility of witness testimony relies exclusively upon accuracy and truthfulness, two components that rarely exist when people are asked to recall events that were traumatic or occurred enough in the past for those memories to become distorted. Children as credible witnesses pose the same concerns as their adult counterparts where the suggestibility factors of cognitive, social, motivational and biological are concerned. The extent to which errors, mistakes, confusion, lies, contamination, distortion and pseudomemory all play an integral role is both grand and far-reaching; that children can be impressionable when called upon to recall the events they think they are required to bring forth speaks to the manipulative components behind the aforementioned factors. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Suicidal Ideation Not Necessarily Associated With Bipolar Disorder
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. There is little in the way of mental health issues that is not misconstrued or embellished to the point where the erroneous assertion becomes interwoven within the disorder's foundation. Those who are diagnosed as bipolar face the suicidal stigma on a regular basis not only from laypeople who clearly do not know better but also from mental health professionals who too quickly cast a broad brush of homogeny. The single greatest influence that removes suicidal tendencies from the basic description of bipolar disorder is the growing trend toward treatment that addresses both the emotional and physiological components at the same time. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
