Session 01: Addiction Drugs and Abuse
Addiction is defined as a constantly persistent, relapsing mental disorder. It is considered a mental disorder because drugs change the function of the brain and its structure. These brain changes can be long-lasting and can lead to the harmful behaviors. Most abused drugs produce intense feelings of pleasure. The initial decision to take drugs is typically voluntary. The common characteristic of all addictive substances is that they activate the brain’s reward system, either directly or indirectly. The positive and negative consequences of substance use vary greatly depending on the specific drug being used. The primary features of substance use disorders are a mixture of cognitive, behavioral, and physiological symptoms.

Session 04: Phases of Recovery
Addiction is an insidious disease. Your recovery process begins with you initiating professional treatment. Once you have fully committed yourself to the treatment of your addiction, you are in the second stage of recovery, known as early abstinence. During the early abstinence stage, your trained addiction counsellor will begin to teach you the coping skills needed to lead a clear lifestyle. After 90 days of continual abstinence from drugs or alcohol, you move to the third stage of recovery maintaining abstinence. If you are in a residential treatment facility, now is the time you move to the outpatient counselling phase of your recovery program. Once you’ve remained clean and clear headed for approximately five years, you enter the fourth and final stage of recovery advanced recovery. At this point, you take all of the tools and skills you learned throughout your counselling and put them to use living a satisfying and fulfilling substance-free life.

Regular screenings in primary care and other health care settings enables earlier identification of mental health and substance use disorders, which translates into earlier care. Screenings should be provided to people of all ages, even the young and the elderly. Some of the tools include Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test(AUDIT), Drug Screening Questionnaire(DSQ), Drug Abuse Screening Test(DAST) etc.

Session 16: Food addiction
Food addiction is closely associated with eating disorders, including obesity, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. Consuming food triggers chemicals in the brain, such as dopamine, that act as a reward and give pleasurable sensations to the individual. These chemicals can also act as a release from emotional distress. It is estimated that around 35 percent of adults in the United States are obese. However, people who are obese equate to only about one third of those with a food addiction, even though food addiction is sometimes associated with weight gain.

Prescription medication is typically given to those who suffer from conditions such as chronic pain. Prescription drug abuse and addiction is one of the most poorly recognized types of chemical dependency, particularly in women. A prescription drug is any medicine regulated by law to require a doctor’s prescription before it can be obtained. Prescription drugs generally work by either suppressing or promoting chemical reactions in the brain.

Session 18: Gambling addiction
Gambling addiction—also known as pathological gambling, compulsive gambling or gambling disorder—is an impulse-control disorder. If you’re a compulsive gambler, you can’t control the impulse to gamble, even when it has negative consequences for you or your loved ones. Gambling addiction is sometimes referred to as a "hidden illness" because there are no obvious physical signs or symptoms like there are in drug or alcohol addiction.

Session 19: Gaming addiction
There are two major types of video games and therefore two major types of video game addictions. Standard video games are generally designed to be played by a single player. The other type of video game addiction is associated with online multiplayer games. These games are played online with other people and are especially addictive because they generally have no ending. Unlike with substance abuse, the biological aspect of video game addiction is uncertain. "Research suggests gambling elevates dopamine," Young says, and gaming is in the same category. But there's more to addiction than brain chemistry.

Session 20: Social Media Addiction
Experts have found a correlation between increased social media usage and depression and anxiety, especially in teens. Social media has become so much a part of our culture that most people can hardly imagine life without sites like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Are young people equipped to navigate a world where increasingly complex algorithms are designed to keep them clicking? Recent studies show that many teens check their social media more than 100 times a day. For some young people, the use of social media is so extreme it is negatively impacting their lives. Their relationships, academics, mental and physical health are suffering they’re addicted

Scope and importance:
1/3 of teenagers who live in states with medical marijuana laws get their pot from other people's prescriptions. The United States represents 5% of the world's population and 75% of prescription drugs taken. 60% of teens who abuse prescription drugs get them free from friends and relatives. Every year over 100,000 babies are born addicted to cocaine in the USA. This is caused by the mother using cocaine during the pregnancy. Only 1% of heroin addicts agree to go to rehab.31% of rock star deaths are related to drugs or alcohol. Antidepressant drugs, already known to cause sexual side effects, may also suppress the basic human emotions of love and romance. 75% of all suicide attempts are by self-poisoning with drugs, and 97% of those cases survive. In 2015, over 50,000 Americans died from drug overdoses the most ever.
Why Rome city:
Rome, the Eternal City, is the capital and biggest city of Italy and of the Lazio area. It's the renowned city of the Roman Empire, the Seven Hills, La Dolce Vita, the Vatican City and Three Coins in the Fountain. Rome, as a thousand years in length focus of intensity, culture and religion, has applied an enormous impact over the world in its about 2800 years of presence. Fewer Italians are dying from drugs but they are experimenting at ever-younger ages, says a government report. Italian kids are smoking joints from the age of 11, and by 15-16 many are regularly abusing marijuana. Part of the problem is that dealers are offering hits at ever more affordable prices: from 5 for heroin (the most popular drug), 5-10 for ecstasy, to 50 for cocaine. Italian youths are also taking on debts of up to 2,000 and are then forced into selling drugs or themselves to pay back the debt. Another factor is that today’s trips can last just two hours, says the report, enabling youngsters to abuse drugs without being noticed by other family members. And because drugs have become ever more refined, joints can be four to five times stronger than in the past. Syringes are also being used less as addicts choose to smoke rather than inject heroin and cocaine. The one good bit of news: the number of those dying from drugs, 429 in 2003, was the lowest in recent years.
