Assignment 8a
Solving the Problem
The service I propose to help individuals get over their vaping and nicotine addiction would be similar to the services provided to alcoholics and drug addicts but a lot more casual. This service would allow people to come to a place, feel comfortable and relaxed, especially when they are tense, and express themselves. It would allow them to speak not only to people who are knowledgeable on the subject but also who have experienced what they are going through. Receiving such feedback and motivation would allow people to learn and get rid of the obsessive thoughts that drive their addiction. I also believe this service can go further and organize activities and create a sense of togetherness within different groups. Having a professional service guide through a process to get rid of an addiction is always reassuring and would make people more motivated into stopping. Providing them with the necessary elements and method needed to stop unhealthy habits would be essential. Tailoring services towards each individual and making them as comfortable as possible would also be necessary. We must remove the notion of the service and make them seem surrounded by regular people talking about a common issue.
I think this a great idea! These types of sessions already exist for alcohol and other drugs but a session that targets nicotine addiction because of vaping could really do some good. Substance abuse is a very serious issue that lots of people struggle with so providing these people with a group of people that share similar experiences could help a lot of people beat addiction.
