How are drug use and sexual behavior related?
Consider what was presented in the class thus far and what you learned about interventions for this discussion, especially Harm Reduction. This discussion combines behaviors, stages of change, socially frowned upon decision and risk.
For this discussion answer the following questions:
How are drug use and sexual behavior related? (For example, “Drug use and sexual behaviors (are/are not) related. According to Author, ….fact on drug use and sexual behavior”) This is not supposed to be your opinion. Look it up and have support with a reference.
Do you think it’s realistic to expect a drug user to change their habits to prevent the spread of HIV? Why or Why not? This is your opinion.
THEN after you state that, Read this article: Can Drug Users Change Behavior? Links to an external site.
Did it surprise you? Did it differ from your prior expectation?
Name two factors mentioned in the article that can contribute to behavior changes in drug users.
Make sure to include at least one outside source (either your book or a web source) and site that resource at the end of your post using APA reference style.
