The University of Birmingham, U.K.for drug abuse. It is important to note, however, that the UK has a significantly higher rate of drug use compared to Japan, based on statistics. This difference influences legal perspectives, cultural attitudes, and approaches to medical treatment of addiction strategies. For example, the UK is more open and medically integrated approach to addiction, which encourages treatment engagement and greater willingness among individuals to seek help. In contrast, the illegal punishments and cultural stigma of drug use in Japan result in lower reported use. It is harder for those struggling with addiction to access support and reintegrate into society. Thus, the aim of this report is comparing the medical approaches to drug dependence in the UK and Japan, investigating underlying reasons for these differences. Studying in Birmingham, UK, exposed me to significant cultural differences, one of which was drug use. Drug use is still a widespread problem within the UK, also contributing to an increase in the number of drug-related deaths and organised crimes in the form of drug trafficking, both domestically and internationally. Unfortunately, Birmingham has one of the most serious drug cultures in the UK. This fact has made me to consider the issues of drug problems and medical approaches to drug dependency since I feel it much more immediate and relevant to me. While I have never personally observed cases of drug addiction in Japan, there is also a growing issue with drugs there these days. For instance, drug use is highlighted in the news, especially regarding celebrities such as actors and influencers who have been arrested Before addressing how they approach drug dependence, understanding the views of drug dependence from the UK government and the National Health Service (NHS) is important to know why they approach it in that way. As a stand of the NHS for it, they consider drug dependence as a mental health and medical condition. In terms of drug addiction, they clearly state mental condition during the addiction that “an addiction gets out of control because you need more and more to satisfy a craving and achieve the high”. In addition, they also explain that the substances in drugs affect the way you feel, both physically and mentally, which can be enjoyable or create a powerful urge to use the substances again. These informaion can be found on the NHS website explaining what addiction is in the NHS, and at the bottom of the website, there is a help centre for addiction, that emphasizes that addiction is a treatble condition. From this, we can see that the NHS and the UK government view drug addiction as both a mental illness and medical condition.Ai UenoIntroductionThe UK’s views on drug addiction13A Comparative Study of Medical Approaches to Drug Dependence in the UK and Japan
