Paul Bonham explores the foundations for relationships between people and drugs. His background as a drugs counsellor in prison and his experience working with young people in schools, on the streets and in clubs, has provided him with a unique insight and knowledge of the subject. From the outset, Paul explains that the term drug can be applied to any substance - whether illegal or legal - or an activity, such as gambling or drinking, that alters an individual's mindset. The approach he adopts in his workshops, which form the basis of this book, is to consider all aspects of building relationships in order to gain an understanding of the psychological and social issues surrounding addiction. Looking at the different interactions between people and various types of drugs, he examines how relationships develop and should be managed; the impact on the 'self'; and ways of safeguarding the individuals concerned. Chapters focus on subjects including; how people are shaped by their environments; relationships and how they define your identity; mental health; the family; peer pressure; the personalisation of drugs; and the impact of social media. The inclusion of workshop dramas, shared experiences and structured questions broadens the discussion, invites contrasting perspectives and prompts debate on this challenging issue.
