1) Thinking about your own personal experiences and perspectives on substance use and addiction, what models or explanations of addiction or substance use (these are not the same thing) resonated with you from the lecture? What was surprising or counter to your expectations/beliefs? Why?

2) What are some "sources" of substance use-related stigma that you can identify as having shaped your own perspective on substance use? What messages about addiction or people who use drugs have you learned, from whom, and for what purposes? Finally, given this, what would some examples be of "structural interventions" to interrupt the "stigma machines" that you have identified as shaping your (and others') perspectives and experiences on substance use and addiction?
