“Exploring the Struggles of Addiction: A Qualitative Study on the Journey to Sobriety”

I am looking to write a dissertation focusing on how to improve the effectiveness of substance use disorder treatment. My theory is that eating disorders – such as, binge eating disorder or bulimia nervosa – in adolescents may be at risk of developing substance use disorder in the future. However, there were many articles that did study this question. Therefore, I am trying to change the topic to something that is more associated with social work (like what are addicts’ biggest struggles before becoming addicted to a substance, what are their biggest struggles during active addiction, and what are their biggest struggles after abstaining from their substance of choice). I want to do a qualitative study by interviewing addicts who have over 6 months of sobriety.
