So something that had been an innocuous habit kind of flipped a switch and really became a problem.” (02:51) (Eve)“I am someone where substance abuse or mental health issues are impacting a family, I go in and really come to understand the dynamics of the family - perhaps multi-generational issues that have transcended the family - and come in with tools and suggestions, not only to help someone in the family who's struggling with substance abuse, but to help the remaining members of the family.” (03:58) (Eve)“So, I worked for many years as a biomedical research librarian. I worked at a cancer institute in Seattle and at the National Institutes of Health. And I really came to understand cancer as a chronic, relapsing, progressive disease which, left unchecked, would most likely lead to death. So that was the framework that I worked in. And, people have this misconception about librarians. They think of us in the backroom, shrinking. I was a very public librarian.” (06:16) (Eve)“I think because of my own personal journey of recovery, because I use a lot of the tools that I learned in treatment - meditation on a regular basis, exercise on a regular basis, good nutrition to the best of my ability given that I travel so much - I just really work to have that peripatetic balance in my life.” (17:14) (Eve)Resources MentionedJFlowers Health Institute – https://jflowershealth.com/JFlowers Health Institute Contact – (713) 783-6655Subscribe on your favorite player: https://understanding-the-human-condition.captivate.fm/listen Eve's LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/eve-ruff-942b1613b/Eve's Cell Phone – (206)-276-4472**The views and opinions expressed by our guests are those of the individual and do not necessarily reflect those of J.

In this episode we talk about what often gets missed or overlooked in the assessment of teen addiction or substance abuse and how this can impact their recovery. You will also learn about what drugs teens are using today, what they have access, which substances have increased in use, and how substance abuse is correlated with the current teen mental health crisis. We also discuss the long-term impact of drugs on a teenager's brain and how adolescent substance abuse differs from adult substance abuse. You will also find out what to do if you suspect your teenager is abusing drugs or alcohol.  

E-cigarettes were first sold in the United States in 2007. These battery-operated devices heat a liquid made of flavorings and other chemicals, including some with high levels of nicotine, to make an aerosol that users inhale into their lungs. Recent studies show there has been a dramatic increase in their usage – data from 2017 found 1 million American youth aged 14 to 17 years old became new daily tobacco users within the past two years. By 2019, more than three quarters of these youth were vaping e-cigarettes daily. This program examines the latest research into the personal and public health impacts of e-cigarettes.

December is a month that can be difficult for people with mental health issues and a history of trauma, and it is the most dangerous time of the year for drug- and alcohol-related accidents. In this episode of Ulysses Neuro Podcast we talk about addiciton and substance abuse, to help raise awareness on this disorder and reduce the stigma surrounding it: our guest Brendan, who has been battling addiction for 20 years, talks about his struggles and experiences with support structures. Addiction is a chronic brain disorder that manifests itself as a dependency on substances or behaviour. We discuss the complex nature of addiction, the overlap with mental health issues, the treatments available in Ireland and the stigma surrounding it.

Today's guest, Gregory Silva, is the Director of Operations for three drug and alcohol treatment centers in Southern California; Living Longer Recovery, Gravity Treatment Centers and New Spirit Treatment Center in Southern California. Gregory began his career in the marketing industry, but after his best friend passed away from an overdose in 2012, he felt called to help others suffering from addiction. He embarked on a new career in substance abuse treatment and is now passionate about helping people change their lives for the better by demystifying the paths to treatment.  In this podcast for managers, Audrey, Lee and Gregory:  ·      How managers can recognize signs of addiction in employees ·      How to have a conversation to inquire about addiction with employees ·      Treatment for employees vs. releasing them ·      Benefits considerations to help employees with addictions  “How do you make someone understand that they need help? There's a lot of companies that drug test and a good percentage will fail the drug test and that's obviously an indication there. Another way is people are either late to work or don't show up or don't call in and that may be a new pattern you didn't see before." –Gregory Silva Sales Manage Smarter with the Manage Smarter Podcast.
