Patrick Madden will present on addressing the dramatic increase in internet and video game addiction among school-age youth and young adults. Both the American Medical Association and American Psychiatric Association have concerns about pathological internet and video game addiction. While technology provides escape and substitutes for real-life relationships, some game designers are working to increase player involvement. The presentation will cover how and why technology can become addictive, symptoms of overuse, effects on relationships and social life, prevalence rates, prevention and treatment options. Patrick Madden has over 30 years of experience as an educational psychologist and operates a private practice, and will provide insights from his expertise.

A New Partnership with Parents
The document discusses developing a national communications campaign in the UK to address underage drinking. It outlines research that found parents have more influence over youth drinking behaviors than they realize. The campaign aims to educate parents and encourage earlier conversations about alcohol before youth form drinking patterns. Focus groups identified seven key parent segments to target tailored messaging toward in order to change social norms and parenting behaviors around underage drinking.

1) The first document discusses the importance of developing strong customer service skills in intake departments for substance abuse treatment facilities. It emphasizes that the first contact a potential client has can influence whether they enroll in treatment.
2) The second document discusses wraparound programs for at-risk youth, which take a holistic approach involving families, schools, and community support networks. These programs allow for individualized care focused on the child's strengths.
3) The third document discusses the legal grey area around "medibles" or marijuana-infused edibles made in home kitchens. It notes concerns about safety and a lack of regulation or inspections for these products.

Drug is a problem, not solution!
Drug consumption rates are high among the students especially teenagers. Often, this involves experimenting and testing their boundaries. To fit in or get relief from stress and deepration, teenagers abuse drugs. They often find drugs to be a solution to all these things.
Consequently, they are drowned into the depth of darkness.
Dealing with Video Game and Tech Addiction
The document discusses dealing with technology and video game addiction among youth. It notes that 97% of youth play video games and provides other statistics on gaming habits. While technology can have benefits like developing skills, excessive use has led to deaths from exhaustion. Signs of addiction include failing obligations from excessive gaming. The document recommends making communication a priority, understanding the underlying needs, setting boundaries, and viewing it as a journey rather than a one-time fix. Parents and faith communities are encouraged to assist youth in overcoming addiction.

Abstract
Increasingly, people spend time online, communicating via e-mail, websites, instant messages, and various social media platforms
that incorporate text, video, and online photo albums. Social media have altered the way people spend their time and commu-
nicate with each other; this includes mental health professionals. It is imperative that therapists are knowledgeable about the ways
social media affects clients’ personal interactions as well as the ethical implications of their own professional use of social media.
Professional organizations do not provide adequate ethical guidelines for therapeutic practice regarding social media; therefore,
ethical codes should be adjusted to include the new media as they arise. After reviewing related literature from other mental
health disciplines, the authors offer recommendations to be integrated into the professional ethical codes for mental health pro-
fessionals to ensure the ethical use of social media in therapy. The authors organize their recommendations around several key
principles from various mental health codes of ethics.

Social media such as Facebook, Twitter, eHarmony, and
MySpace have come to dominate popular culture. People have
access to friends and family through social media virtually at
all times. Whether at home on the desktop computer, in the
library with a laptop, or on the go with a smart phone, friends,
‘‘fans,’’ and ‘‘followers’’ are never more than a few clicks
away. For the purposes of this work, social media—sometimes
referred to as social networks—are defined as Internet-based
applications used in direct and indirect social interactions.
Social media have become entrenched in how many people
communicate with one another. It has even been argued that the
order of relationship development has changed (Palfrey & Gas-
ser, 2008). In the past, it would have been necessary to engage
in some sort of conversation in order to find out if a potential
partner had a pet or siblings, where he went to high school, and
what his interests and life goals are. Today, a couple on a first
date might come armed with the most insignificant and inti-
mate details of each other’s lives without ever having had a
conversation.
Not only providing new ways for friends and family or
romantic partners to connect, social media increasingly serve
as a platform for professional communication. Seemingly no
one is immune to the siren’s song of social media. For example,
on the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy
(AAMFT) website, one can find Facebook, Twitter, and
MySpace icons.

INBRE Let's Talk Poster 2016_Final
Researchers conducted a content analysis of video footage from a community theatre program aimed at suicide prevention in Eastern Montana. The analysis found that over 40% of content depicted personal experiences with stigma related to mental illness, treatment, and help-seeking. The plays suggested stigma contributes to social isolation and is a barrier to treatment. Researchers conclude stigma reproduction maintains disparities in access to care and interventions are needed to reduce its impact in the region.

Social media use has been linked to both positive and negative mental health outcomes. Excessive social media use has been associated with increased rates of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and other mental health issues among youth and young adults. Several studies analyzed found that high daily use of digital technologies like smartphones and social media can exacerbate existing mental health conditions like attention deficits and conduct disorders in at-risk adolescents. However, social media also plays a role in perpetuating stigma around mental health issues. More research is still needed to fully understand the complex relationship between social media use and mental well-being.

Final draft: The Influence of social media on Mental Health
Abstract
It is essential to define social media and mental health to have a meaningful conversation on the impact technology has on people's emotional well-being. One definition of social media is how individuals may discuss and learn more about a range of topics with one another. Video, still images, and sound are just some of the many ways data may be sent. The material provided on these sites has the potential to help people or to cause harm, such as mental health problems or radicalization. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Flickr are all examples of well-known social networking sites. Pew predicts that by 2022, 84 percent of U.S. adults will be active on at least one social networking site, up from 5 percentage points in 2002. In the United States, people mainly utilize the social media sites Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter.

w frequent social media usage can negatively impact mental health, especially depression. The study found that increased social media use correlated with increased depression symptoms in individuals. Social media has the potential to affect users' mental health.
2. The study aimed to understand the relationship between frequent social media use and depression. A key finding was that higher levels of social media usage were linked to higher reported depression symptoms in participants.
3. Frequent social media engagement poses risks to mental health, particularly depression. The always-on nature of platforms can contribute to symptoms in users through social comparison and feelings of isolation. More research is still needed to fully understand these complex relationships.

Introduction
One cannot imagine current life without the ubiquitous presence of social media. Since it was first created, people have found several ways to put it to use. Social media were designed to facilitate quick one-on-one contact. However, it has steadily been implemented in several industries, including schools, the business world, and hospitals, as a tool for marketing, making it simpler to contact more consumers and prospective clients in a short period. However, social media's negative aspects may harm people's health and well-being. Among the harmful impacts of social media is the rise of mental health problems, according to recent studies. Anxiety, sadness, and mania are just some of the mental health problems that have been linked to excessive social media usage.
People's mental well-being is crucial since it determines how actively they engage in everyday life. Mental health issues may impair an individual's ability to operate and can be triggered by various traumatic experiences, abusive relationships, child maltreatment, unemployment, and failed marriages. Common mental health difficulties include melancholy, inability to sleep, tension, hostility, and suppression of feelings (Coyne et al.,2020). However, mental health encompasses not only physical health but also social and emotional well-being.
Some have suggested that media positively and negatively affect users' mental health. One of social media's most frequently cited advantages is the increased privacy it provides its users. Individuals can feel safe sharing their traumatic experiences, knowing their privacy will be protected. In other words, face-to-face interactions don't necessarily guarantee the same level of ope.

Essay Three: Research
Every field has its problems whether these problems exist in academia or in the professional world. These problems can exist because of a difference in academic philosophy or theory. Furthermore, these problems can be a common occurrence in your industry. With this in mind, your research essay is going to focus on a problem within your discipline. Once you find a relevant issue in your discipline, you must convince your audience that this situation is a problem. Then, outline a proposal to fix that problem, explaining why your proposal is a reasonable solution to this problem.
Concepts to consider:
In order to begin your proposal, it is important to consider the rhetorical situation that has generated this question or problem. What does this situation say about the problem and how your solution might be beneficial? Who is involved in the problem and solution, and what are their concerns? Considering these elements of the situation will help convince the audience to support the task you’re proposing or even uptake the task you’re proposing. Also, consider whether or not your audience agrees that your topic is a problem. If they do not agree, you might have to spend more time explaining why the topic is a problem that needs to be addressed; on the other hand, if they already are asking the same questions surrounding your problem, you might decide to spend more time outlining the proposal for your readers.
Stipulations:
· Each essay MUST have a clear, identifiable THESIS STATEMENT.
· Use at least six outside sources to support your points. Four of your sources have to be peer-reviewed sources.
· Each essay must be 2100-3000 words, 12 point font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, and in the format of your discipline (APA or MLA). The works cited/reference does not count toward the word count. Any paper not meeting the word count will lose significant points. Furthermore, make sure that your essay is in a .docx file format.
· Each essay must have an academic essay title. Examples of academic titles: “Expanding the Concept of Translational Research: Making a Place for Environmental Health Sciences”; “Restoring Public Confidence in the Criminal Justice System: Policing Prosecutions When Prosecutors Prosecute Police.” Please make the most of it—do not just call this essay “Research Essay” or “Essay 3.”

There are different reasons as to why the research study about child abuse is important in the current world, due to the fact that the gathering of data and information about child abuse will help in the devising of strategies and ways of addressing this crisis. According to reports by different organizations such as World Health Organization(WHO), most of the cases of child abuse can be avoided or even treated. Forms of child abuse such as physical, sexual, neglect and even emotional or psychological abuse can be prevented through understanding them.
Rationale for the selection of the topic of child abuse as a research paper is to pass information to the people about the adverse effects associated with child abuse, interventions which can be used for addressing the issue of child abuse and the possible reasons for the increase in the cases of child abuse in the modern world. Consequently, researching on this topic of child abuse helps in the minimization of cots that would have been incurred fostering care, counselling in the family as well medical care. Rationally, most people still have the mentality and perception that child abuse is characterized by the old definitions of working in farms and factories as well as plantations. However, in the current world, child abuse has been revolutionized as well. Issues of sexual abuse and exploitation, such as trafficking, rape and commercial sex are emerging issues in child abuse. Adverse effects of child abuse are normally evident due to the fact that some aspects of child abuse such as emotional hardly heal (Jud, Andreas, Jörg M. Fegert, and David Finkelhor, 17). Due to the fact that issues of child abuse have been ignored in the society, analysis and research on this issue will help in the addressing and handling of this issue.
Background
Different definitions and forms of child abuse have been suggested by both scholars and researchers. Basically, child abuse or even child maltreatment involves the previously identified forms, that is sexual, emotional, neglect and physical. Most of the countries have been sensitizing on the issue of child abuse, with these four notable forms of child abuse having penalties and custody depending on the seriousness of the case. Different perceptions and ideas have been presented with regard to corporal punishmen.

i) Background of the practice problem/gap at the project site
One of the primary causes of disability worldwide, depression affects a sizable percentage of the population. Persistent feelings of sadness and guilt, changes in sleeping patterns (insomnia or oversleeping), changes in appetite, decreased mental and physical energy, unusual irritability, inability to enjoy once-enjoyed activities, difficulty working, and thoughts of death or suicide are all symptoms that can be associated with any type of depressive disorder. These "down" symptoms alone may indicate a unipolar depressive disorder like dysthymia or severe depression if they are present. A person may be diagnosed with bipolar illness if they experience alternating spells of depression and euphoria. Adolescents and young adults increasingly have difficulties with their mental health (Poppen et al., 2016). An individual's mental health is something only they can fully comprehend, making it difficult for friends and loved ones to spot warning signs in time to intervene. Juvenile and young adult suicide is a major problem in today's world. A lack of life experiences, self-confidence, and faith in one's own skills contribute to the suicides of many young individuals.
ii) Significance of the practice problem/gap at the project site
Mental illness has been a problem that is affected the population for a long period and worryingly young people and adolescents are experiencing many effects that lead to some committing suicide. The stress that today's youth encounter nowadays is the most significant of all these issues, especially the pressure they receive based on their academic expectations and poor communication about their troubles to their parents. There is also a gap in the schools in terms of students receiving counseling services because there are limited professional counselors that attend to student needs. Despite the fact that psychologists claim stress could be caused by anything, many young people find the rapid pace of modern life to be a significant source of anxiety. Many young individuals are inspired to take their own lives by the media's glorified depiction of suicide (Poppen et al., 2016). The reality that suicide is always fatal seems to be lost on many young people. Young people, in other words, consider suicide an o ...

Introduction
How well a person is able to live a full life, build and maintain relationships and pursue their education, profession or other pursuits requires them to maintain their well-being ranging from physical to mental health. When assisting others to achieve good and self-motivated changes, social workers draw on their relationship-based abilities and emphasize personalization and rehabilitation. A key issue is, "What components and obstacles of an assessment are there in order to reach these outcomes?" When it comes to health promotion and public involvement, social workers are well-suited for this role since primary care is all about these things. Social workers who deal with mental health have unique challenges in assessment, which necessitates them learning and using psychiatric principles. Identifying the need for mental health care requires an understanding of assessment principles.
For this research, the focus is on urban youth's increase in mental health cases which is more influenced by lack of access to mental health care as a result of poverty that affects many children and families in the US. Young people are the most impacted by poverty, accounting for 33% of the total number of individuals in poverty. Children who live in "high risk neighborhoods" are more likely to lack access to the mental health supports they need to manage their symptoms. Stabilization, individual treatment, and symptom management are all important aspects of aftercare for children who have been hospitalized for behavioral difficulties by the time they are six years old (Hodgkinson, 2017).
Literature Review
Inequality based on race and class has been shown to be associated with a variety of negative health outcomes, including poor mental health. Increased financial disparity is associated with an increase in the prevalence of mental illness along a social gradient in mental health. However, psychiatric and psychological approaches have dominated ment ...

Researchers conducted a content analysis of video footage from a community theatre program aimed at suicide prevention in Eastern Montana. The analysis found that over 40% of content depicted personal experiences with stigma related to mental illness, treatment, and help-seeking. The plays suggested stigma contributes to social isolation and is a barrier to treatment. Researchers conclude stigma reproduction maintains disparities in access to care and interventions are needed to reduce its impact in the region.

Social media use has been linked to both positive and negative mental health outcomes. Excessive social media use has been associated with increased rates of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and other mental health issues among youth and young adults. Several studies analyzed found that high daily use of digital technologies like smartphones and social media can exacerbate existing mental health conditions like attention deficits and conduct disorders in at-risk adolescents. However, social media also plays a role in perpetuating stigma around mental health issues. More research is still needed to fully understand the complex relationship between social media use and mental well-being.

Final draft: The Influence of social media on Mental Health
Abstract
It is essential to define social media and mental health to have a meaningful conversation on the impact technology has on people's emotional well-being. One definition of social media is how individuals may discuss and learn more about a range of topics with one another. Video, still images, and sound are just some of the many ways data may be sent. The material provided on these sites has the potential to help people or to cause harm, such as mental health problems or radicalization. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Flickr are all examples of well-known social networking sites. Pew predicts that by 2022, 84 percent of U.S. adults will be active on at least one social networking site, up from 5 percentage points in 2002. In the United States, people mainly utilize the social media sites Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter.

2. The study aimed to understand the relationship between frequent social media use and depression. A key finding was that higher levels of social media usage were linked to higher reported depression symptoms in participants.
3. Frequent social media engagement poses risks to mental health, particularly depression. The always-on nature of platforms can contribute to symptoms in users through social comparison and feelings of isolation. More research is still needed to fully understand these complex relationships.

Introduction
One cannot imagine current life without the ubiquitous presence of social media. Since it was first created, people have found several ways to put it to use. Social media were designed to facilitate quick one-on-one contact. However, it has steadily been implemented in several industries, including schools, the business world, and hospitals, as a tool for marketing, making it simpler to contact more consumers and prospective clients in a short period. However, social media's negative aspects may harm people's health and well-being. Among the harmful impacts of social media is the rise of mental health problems, according to recent studies. Anxiety, sadness, and mania are just some of the mental health problems that have been linked to excessive social media usage.
People's mental well-being is crucial since it determines how actively they engage in everyday life. Mental health issues may impair an individual's ability to operate and can be triggered by various traumatic experiences, abusive relationships, child maltreatment, unemployment, and failed marriages. Common mental health difficulties include melancholy, inability to sleep, tension, hostility, and suppression of feelings (Coyne et al.,2020). However, mental health encompasses not only physical health but also social and emotional well-being.
Some have suggested that media positively and negatively affect users' mental health. One of social media's most frequently cited advantages is the increased privacy it provides its users. Individuals can feel safe sharing their traumatic experiences, knowing their privacy will be protected. In other words, face-to-face interactions don't necessarily guarantee the same level of ope.

Essay Three: Research
Every field has its problems whether these problems exist in academia or in the professional world. These problems can exist because of a difference in academic philosophy or theory. Furthermore, these problems can be a common occurrence in your industry. With this in mind, your research essay is going to focus on a problem within your discipline. Once you find a relevant issue in your discipline, you must convince your audience that this situation is a problem. Then, outline a proposal to fix that problem, explaining why your proposal is a reasonable solution to this problem.
Concepts to consider:
In order to begin your proposal, it is important to consider the rhetorical situation that has generated this question or problem. What does this situation say about the problem and how your solution might be beneficial? Who is involved in the problem and solution, and what are their concerns? Considering these elements of the situation will help convince the audience to support the task you’re proposing or even uptake the task you’re proposing. Also, consider whether or not your audience agrees that your topic is a problem. If they do not agree, you might have to spend more time explaining why the topic is a problem that needs to be addressed; on the other hand, if they already are asking the same questions surrounding your problem, you might decide to spend more time outlining the proposal for your readers.
Stipulations:
· Each essay MUST have a clear, identifiable THESIS STATEMENT.
· Use at least six outside sources to support your points. Four of your sources have to be peer-reviewed sources.
· Each essay must be 2100-3000 words, 12 point font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, and in the format of your discipline (APA or MLA). The works cited/reference does not count toward the word count. Any paper not meeting the word count will lose significant points. Furthermore, make sure that your essay is in a .docx file format.
· Each essay must have an academic essay title. Examples of academic titles: “Expanding the Concept of Translational Research: Making a Place for Environmental Health Sciences”; “Restoring Public Confidence in the Criminal Justice System: Policing Prosecutions When Prosecutors Prosecute Police.” Please make the most of it—do not just call this essay “Research Essay” or “Essay 3.”

How well a person is able to live a full life, build and maintain relationships and pursue their education, profession or other pursuits requires them to maintain their well-being ranging from physical to mental health. When assisting others to achieve good and self-motivated changes, social workers draw on their relationship-based abilities and emphasize personalization and rehabilitation. A key issue is, "What components and obstacles of an assessment are there in order to reach these outcomes?" When it comes to health promotion and public involvement, social workers are well-suited for this role since primary care is all about these things. Social workers who deal with mental health have unique challenges in assessment, which necessitates them learning and using psychiatric principles. Identifying the need for mental health care requires an understanding of assessment principles.
For this research, the focus is on urban youth's increase in mental health cases which is more influenced by lack of access to mental health care as a result of poverty that affects many children and families in the US. Young people are the most impacted by poverty, accounting for 33% of the total number of individuals in poverty. Children who live in "high risk neighborhoods" are more likely to lack access to the mental health supports they need to manage their symptoms. Stabilization, individual treatment, and symptom management are all important aspects of aftercare for children who have been hospitalized for behavioral difficulties by the time they are six years old (Hodgkinson, 2017).
Literature Review
Inequality based on race and class has been shown to be associated with a variety of negative health outcomes, including poor mental health. Increased financial disparity is associated with an increase in the prevalence of mental illness along a social gradient in mental health. However, psychiatric and psychological approaches have dominated ment ...

- 1. Technology Addiction Addressing the Dramatic Increase in Internet and Video Game Addiction, What Parents and Professionals Need to Know Presenter: Patrick Madden, M.A., LEP Pathological internet & video game addiction, or “overuse”, is now at the forefront of concerns for both The American Medical Association and the American Psychiatric Association. The American Psychiatric Association considered it for inclusion in the DSM - 5, but decided there was not yet sufficient research to support including it as an “addiction”. However, increasing numbers of school-age youth and young adults are becoming involved in the compulsive use of video games and the internet; especially those with emotional disturbances and those on the autistic spectrum. Video games and the internet (i.e., online games, social media, chat rooms, etc.) provide both escape from the normal developmental challenges of growing up (i.e., school, work, social life), and “safe substitutes” for real-life interpersonal relationships. In addition, they are intensely FUN – in part because they enhance the pleasure centers of the brain. While parents are struggling to keep their children’s involvement with technology “in balance” with more traditional obligations such as school and social activities, some game designers are working on ways to “hook” the player in to longer and more intense involvement. Session topics include: How and why technology of all types may become “addictive”; game types & ratings; symptoms of “overuse”; how technology abuse affects relationships and social life; prevalence rates; prevention strategies; and intervention/treatment options. About the presenter: Patrick Madden, M.A., a Licensed Educational Psychologist, worked in the public school system as a school psychologist and program specialist for 32 years.
