Explain how this app will enhance the user's wellbeing in the short term and long term. You need to discuss all 4 dimensions of wellbeing.

Drug use/Alcohol/smoking 

Physical - These types of addictions can have a massive impact on your physical well-being. It is really unhealthy to be ingesting these sort of things. Types of drugs you take can cause your body to react in many ways. Drinking alcohol is a massive effect on your weight and safety. Smoking can cause lung cancer and be very harmful. You are STOP! or make yourself aware of these consequences.

Mental and Emotional-  Again these addictions still have a massive impact on your mental and emotional well-being. They can kill off a lot of your brain cells and affect you in a negative way. Drug use is probably one of the worse things that affect your mental and emotional well-being. How? Well using drugs can enhance your feelings or make you see and believe things you would not usually see. They blindside us to believe things that aren't really true. Alcohol and smoking also play a huge part. They heighten your emotions and can cause you to over-react/stress/cry etc... You need to look after yourself.

Social- All of these addictions affect your social well-being equally. Yes, even smoking. How? Because many people have lost others from lung cancer etc... They may glare at your or move away from you because they are either disgusted or do not approve of your choices. Many people also feel unsafe around people who are intoxicated and also high on drugs. You need to quit!


Spiritual- This app provides addicts with stress-free ways that can help them go through the process of quitting their addiction. People with addictions suffer from being treated differently, which can affect the way they look at themselves and their beliefs, that completely change to what others think of them. Addicts battle with themselves within because they can't help it. Its natural for them, after all, they consume more and they just think its normal to keep doing it.
