INSTRUCTIONS:
For the first few units of this course, we are observing the different concepts of mental illness and addiction and how they are something that society defines or constructs. In this paper, share your thoughts about: The idea of mental illness being shaped and defined by society The positive and negative implications of the idea that mental illness and drug addiction are by-products of society and therefore, evolve and change over time. Whether or not you think this is a positive or a negative way of viewing mental health and addiction. Research information and find a minimum of three outside sources. The DSM-5 and Wikipedia does not count as a source.
