Best Treatments 💊 Substance Use Disorders

Timeless drug abuse treatment advice from highly-respected subject matter expert counselor/clinician/psychologist for and with Community Health Workers (CHWs). SUD Defined: Substance use disorder is a problematic pattern of substance use that affects your health and well-being. Some of the most common substances include alcohol, opioids and marijuana. It can range from mild to severe (addiction). SUD is a treatable mental health condition. Help is available when you’re ready. OUD Defined: Opioid Use Disorder is a specific kind of Substance Use Disorder. Individuals with OUD have a pattern of opioid use that leads to significant issues, such as health problems and difficulty meeting major responsibilities at home, work or school. OUD can involve the use of illegal opioids (e.g., heroin, fentanyl) or prescription opioids (e.g., oxycodone, hydrocodone). Is OUD a disability? For many, OUD is a disability per ADA’s definition as it's a drug addiction that substantially limits a major life activity. For example, OUD can affect a person’s: Self-care ability Thinking Learning Concentrating Communicating Working Using opioids can also change a person’s brain chemicals. Learn more about how OUD can meet the ADA’s definition of disability at The Americans with Disabilities Act and the Opioid Crisis. What kind of treatment is there for OUD? Rehabilitation or Drug Treatment Programs: Some people participate in rehabilitation or drug treatment programs for OUD. Medication for OUD (MOUD): Some individuals use medication for OUD prescribed by a licensed medical professional to help them in recovery. When people take MOUD in addition to participating in counseling and other behavioral therapies, it is called medication assisted treatment (MAT). The ADA Protects Individuals with OUD. A federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in everyday activities, the ADA guarantees that people with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else to enjoy employment opportunities, participate in state and local government programs and purchase goods and services. The ADA protects people with disabilities from discrimination in many settings, including: Employment Social services agencies Child welfare agencies Courts Prisons and jails Medical facilities like hospitals, doctors’ offices and skilled nursing facilities Homeless shelters Schools, colleges and universities Exception: The ADA does NOT protect individuals who are currently illegally using drugs. This includes illegal drug use that was recent enough to support a reasonable belief that the use is current or that continuing use is a real and ongoing problem. Learn more about what current illegal drug use means at The Americans with Disabilities Act and the Opioid Crisis. Taking MOUD or other opioids legally prescribed by a doctor for a valid purpose is not considered to be current illegal drug use when they are taken as directed.
