Abstract:
Drugs of abuse represent a spectrum of chemically diverse compounds that are used via various routes of drug administration depending on the drug and its preparation. Although the exact molecular mechanisms by which these agents act to produce their intoxicating effects are not completely understood, many drugs of abuse are known to bind to specific neuronal membrane proteins that produce effects on cellular signaling and ultimately on behavior. With repeated administration of a drug, individuals often develop tolerance, and discontinuation of drug use following chronic administration typically results in withdrawal symptoms. This chapter describes the mechanism of action for the following classes of drugs of abuse: alcohol, cannabinoids, hallucinogens, inhalants, nicotine, opioids, sedative hypnotics, and stimulants. In addition, mechanisms of tolerance and withdrawal are discussed.

Abstract:
Chapter 7, “Motivational Interviewing: Theory and Practice,” provides the theoretical and practice foundation for motivational interviewing (MI). MI employs a client-centered counseling style for achieving behavior change by facilitating exploration and resolution of ambivalence. The trans-theoretical model of change is discussed, as is the “spirit of motivational interviewing,” which highlights the practitioner’s way of being with clients. The chapter presents skills and techniques to enhance older adults’ ability to work through ambivalence and develop a sustainable plan for action. In addition, later-life problems in functioning that benefit from the use of motivational interviewing are summarized, including substance abuse/misuse, chronic disease management, smoking cessation and diet, exercise and weight control. Contextual issues related to clinical practice, and special considerations for use of MI with older clients, are discussed. The chapter includes a case example of motivational interviewing with an older woman with alcohol misuse issues.

Abstract:
This chapter continues the analysis of death penalty cases resulting in commutation. Some involved men who were in possession of arms that they used to devastating effect for a miscellany of reasons. All of these killings occurred between August 1922 and December 1923, as the country was embroiled in, and then emerging from, a period of civil war. Others exhibited signs of mental instability which fell short of establishing legal insanity. Some behaved bizarrely and others seemed to lack insight into the harm they had caused. Sometimes chronic alcohol abuse was a factor. Several were serving members of the National Army and a war record was sometimes referenced in clemency petitions. Some commutations were chivalrous and, had the murderer not been female, an execution would almost certainly have ensued. The final group—all men—would have died had not unforeseen events intervened; these were cases where the decision to grant clemency was capricious.

Abstract:
Stressful life events often occur during the week or month preceding suicide and may aid both the formation of the suicidal narrative and the triggering of the suicide crisis syndrome. This chapter examines the stressors that have been linked to imminent suicidal behavior. The chapter has five sections. The work and career section describes imminent risk associated with economic hardship, business/work failures, and home loss. The relationship conflict section discusses suicide risks stemming from romantic rejection, intimate relationship and family conflicts, as well as abuse, neglect, and bullying. The serious medical illness section discusses suicide risks associated with diagnosis and chronicity of being critically ill. The serious mental illness section focuses on imminent risk associated with recent diagnosis, acuity and hospitalization for mental illness, as well the risks following recent failed suicide attempts. The recent substance misuse section assesses imminent risk associated with chronic alcohol/drug use, acute intoxication, and withdrawal.

Abstract:
Integrative Addiction and Recovery is a book discussing the epidemic of addiction that is consuming our friends, family, and community nationwide. In 2016, there were 64,000 drug overdoses, and addiction became the top cause of accidental death in America in 2015. We are in a crisis and in need of a robust and integrated solution. We begin with the definition of addiction, neurobiology of addiction, and the epidemiology of varying substances of abuse and treatment guidelines. Section II reviews different types of addiction such as food, alcohol, sedative-hypnotics, cannabis, stimulants (such as cocaine and methamphetamine), opiates (including prescription and illicit opiates), and tobacco, and evidence-based approaches for their treatment using psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy, as well as holistic treatments including acupuncture, nutraceuticals, exercise, yoga, and meditation. We also have chapters on behavioral addictions and hallucinogens. Section III reviews co-occurring disorders and their evidence-based integrative treatment and also overviews the holistic therapeutic techniques such as acupuncture and TCM, Ayurveda, homeopathy, nutrition, nutraceuticals, art and aroma therapy, and equine therapy as tools for recovery. We have unique chapters on shamanism and ibogaine, as well as spirituality and group support (12 steps included). The final section deals with challenges facing recovery such as trauma, acute/chronic pain, and post acute withdrawal. Integrative Addiction and Recovery is an innovative and progressive textbook, navigating this complex disease with the most comprehensive approach.

Abstract:
Drugs or alcohol are used at the time of the offense by over half of all detainees, necessitating screening for both intoxication and risk of withdrawal from substances at intake. Intoxication and withdrawal can mimic signs and symptoms of an acute mental disorder or exacerbate an underlying chronic disease. One of the most difficult challenges a clinician may face is differentiating whether the presentation is due to a combination of intoxication/withdrawal and mental illness versus mental illness alone. Using substances while on psychiatric medications can alter the pharmacology, change the effectiveness, and exacerbate the side effects of medications, potentially causing lack of response, nonadherence, or dangerous physical effects. Substance use also puts the patient at risk for trauma and exposure to infections from risky behaviors while intoxicated. The clinician faces an imposing challenge in any attempt to accurately assess underlying psychopathology in the midst of acute detoxification. It is a generally accepted practice to reassess the patient’s psychotropic treatment needs once their detoxification is complete, but individual cases may require acute intervention based on the severity of the patient’s mental illness. This chapter attempts to educate the correctional clinician on the common presentations of intoxication and withdrawal syndromes of various substances. The similarities and distinctions of such syndromes with mental illnesses are discussed. Standardized medical management approaches to safeguard patient safety during supervised withdrawal are also presented. Following such a process allows the clinician to subsequently assess the patient’s true mental health and substance abuse treatment needs.
