  3. CLINCIAL QUESTIONNAIRE: STOTLER 3 Cognitive Behavioral Assessment. Questionnaire. Cognition : “The mental activities in acquiring and processing information.. A cognition is an item of knowledge or belief (Colman, 2015). Clinical equipoise: “The best possible treatment of one’s patients.” (Gravetter, Forenzo, 2014). Nothing is more important, when one is facing actuality in the field of being a clinician or helping / treating actual patients, clients and professionals / community members, than the health and wellness of these individuals and the safe, effective and crucial factors of treatment of these individuals. Furthermore, leading professionals must provide in emergency and everyday practice, state of the art criteria and practices that withhold effective functions of treatment, care, wellness, achievement and positive propagations. Those in charge of treatment, while undergoing numerous testing, certification demands and other requisites, before practice, must hold with them the honesty and trust in which is expected of any working professional. Some questions that should be asked by addiction clinicians may include such that and the following.

Who and Why? 12.Do you believe some people believe that addiction is a disease to them? 13.Can you identify what it would take to completely reassess and perhaps find desperation to be without your addiction to this point? 14.Can you imagine someone inheriting your addiction / your addiction starting from the beginning with someone else? 15.What can your addiction do positively for your future? (EXTENDED) 16.What would be the last straw to be drawn to separate you from your addiction?

  5. CLINCIAL QUESTIONNAIRE: STOTLER 5 17.What would be the most intense event that could happen to make you look at your addiction as a “hard part” or a“bad part” of your life? 18.If you were capable of finding your sobriety and every reason to be sober, how would you convey this idea to other people that are addicted? 19.If you wanted to define what your addiction meant to what would / could you say? 20.Have you ever thought of the difference between a time interval that you were completely sober and a time interval where you had continuously used? 21.Can you look at a period where you had went without using or dirnking and thought of this time as time you had “won”, or “benefited”? 22.Can you identify the approach of looking at a period of time without using or dirnking and looking at this time period as progress to your life? 23.Have you ever tried to “go without” your addiction for the longest you could and ended up relapsing? 24.Have you ever told yourself that you would or had quit, and were unable to keep up with your own promise? 25.Have you ever tried to look at your addiction as an epoch of time between you and your sobriety? 26.Can you identify after a certain epoch of time that you would be completely sober? 27.Can you distinguish that if you got yourself clean and “cleansed” your system of drugs and/or alcohol that you would be completely clean / “over” a physical addiction? 28.Can you separate the feelings for your addiction as physical, mental, psychological, and physiological?

  6. CLINCIAL QUESTIONNAIRE: STOTLER 6 29.Can you separate your tempts, urges, and cravings as actual phenomena of those categorires (listed in no. 28)? 30.Can you identify with anyone you know that has quit an addiction? 31.Have you ever noticed that sometimes drastic events are needed to make drastic hcnages? 32.Have you ever thought that you would quit if a drastic event entitled you to do so? 33.Have you ever thought that a drastic event does not have to be a catastrophic event? 34.Have you ever pondered that doctors cannot make a drastic event take place to your body? 35.Have you ever wondered if it was possible for a drastic event ot be so catastrophic that it could sober somone up for life? 36.Have you ever thought that professionals are aware of this, and that there is no viable way to reproduce a drastic event that would be strong enough to take the place in someone’s life as a drastic event? 37.Can you imagine that the drastic event may be so powerful and unwanted that you have found the chance to avoid it? 38.Have you ever thought that other people have thought about this kind of philosophy, and that many people are “waiting” for a drastic event to take place to make them change their ways? 39.Have you ever thought that you would change your life if you could no longer afford how you were living now? 40.Have you ever thought that it can be “too late” to find out where you could have taken a better turn?

  7. CLINCIAL QUESTIONNAIRE: STOTLER 7 41.Do you believe that it is possible to have gained numerous years of time away or “off” of your addiction? 42.Do you believe that your addiction “means” anything to you? 43.What does your addiction truly mean to you? 44. These questions (above) would perhaps open doors of cognitive-behavioral perspectives because the participants /addicts or clients would be forced to acknowledge answerable cues to the revelation of their freedom from their addiction. The questions are set out to introduce both the individual now looking from the addiction and also a sober or “treated addict” looking back and acknowledging that there was “magic” that must have happened to get so far away from their addiction The cognitive behavior perspectives in the questions identify different aspects of looking on one’s addiction. Many more aspects of one’s addiction may be needed to be experienced or acknowledged before someone is inspired to move or make the changes in their life that they need or perhaps will yearn, want ro regret not making. It seems common and most likely: easiest, for people in extreme circumstances involving addiction to repetitively pass or overlook key elements to their or a ideal recovery. Questionnaires and especially spending time with an experienced dedicated clinician may bring factors that are extremely crucial to an individual’s recovery or even admittance to addiction problems and forthrightly, treatment of any kind or sort. The problems are there; and people need help.
