Discussion: Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Well-Being

Many addiction treatment programs incorporate a multi factor approach to treatment, focusing on the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well being of the individual (Alcoholics Anonymous, 2012). Not only does addiction harm the body, it may also affect the mental well being of an individual. In addition, spirituality may also play an important role in addiction treatment. Each area of well being must be carefully assessed, examined, and treated. Failure to do so may result in a greater chance for relapse. It is also essential to consider the influence of gender for a person's physical, emotional, and spiritual well being when treating addiction (Myers & Salt, 2013).

For this Discussion, review this week's resources and consider how physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well being are influenced by addiction. In addition, think about how men, women, or people with gender variant or gender non-conforming identities with addiction might experience the areas of well being differently.

-  An explanation of two ways addiction impacts the physical, emotional, and spiritual well being of clients with problems with addiction.
