Abstract: The traditional ‘medical model’ of addiction is useful in some aspects of addiction assessment and treatment and rather confounding in other aspects. What I will present here is a new way of thinking about addiction treatment, in which the ‘medical model’ is primarily confined to only one aspect of substance treatment, namely the assessment and treatment of states of intoxication and withdrawal.
