Environmental and genetic factors were briefly discussed in the previous blogs, but it is important to mention that an individual, who is subjected to these criminally-influenced factors, can consequently face substance abuse and the development of a disorder(s). Substance abuse can also contribute to the development of a disorder, as well as having a disorder can contribute to substances abuse. We know that disorders and substance abuse can be inherently related to genetics and environmental factors, but these two factors should be looked at separately because there is a high percentage of criminals that have disorders and engage in substance abuse. The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) conducted an interview with the National Institute of Medical Health Epidemiologic Catchment Area Program which declared that, “For those with either an alcohol or other drug disorder, the odds of having the other addictive disorders were seven times greater than in the rest of the population” (1). Unfortunately, it is not enough that some individuals are genetically and environmentally predisposed to crime, but they also run the risk of encountering other factors indirectly related such as disorders and substance abuse.
Anxiety, mood, psychotic, substance dependency, sexual, and personality disorders are some of the disorders that can control an individual, making them a criminal threat to society and themselves. One might ponder what causes such disorders that might contribute to criminality. “Although the exact cause of most mental illnesses is not known, it is becoming clear through research that many of these conditions are caused by a combination of biological, psychological, and environmental factors.” (Web MD) A disorder can develop in more ways than one. Awareness is important. People need to know that there is a correlation between criminals and disorders. Hence, more analysis needs to be done with the focus on crime and mental disorders as well as factoring in substance abuse. Once there is more research then it is much easier to determine how to prevent and solve a problem. Substance abuse should not be an excuse to why an individual commits a crime, but the reason why individual’s abuse substances should be understood to formulate a resolution to reduce drug abuse in society which will result in a decrease in crime.
I witnessed environmental factors, genetic factors, disorder(s), and substance abuse overwhelming a family member of mine, which created a criminal-minded, self-destructive person. This person was brought up by an over protective mother and a controlling, alcoholic father. He also had a schizophrenic brother who physically took out all the emotions on his brother that he was experiencing at the beginning stages of the disorder. As a result of his environment and possible genetic factors, this person developed depression, anxiety, and antisocial personality disorders, in which he tried to compensate through alcoholism and drug use. There was plenty criminal misconduct that came along with these factors such as driving under the influence, spousal abuse, assaults, possession of drugs, and theft. Fortunately, the unexpected pregnancy of his first born shed light on all the darkness in his life. He finally found a positive way to compensate, which was making sure his daughter wouldn’t encounter the same or similar misfortune as he did. It wasn’t easy, but through the inspiration of his daughter, family support, anti-depressant medication, running, and meditation he is a completely different person. He also received his GED, enrolled in vocational training, and obtained a job. He is a proven fact that individuals who share similar or different experiences are not a lost cause, and that there is hope for these individuals to live a better life.

ReplyDeleteIrrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,Lupus,Lymne Disease,psoriasis,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer,siva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Scoliosis,Brain Tumor,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
