I think I already gave a number of examples... but you've put words in my head by saying that they are denied. What I'm saying is that people, for various reasons, fail to learn how to see that their needs are met legitimately, and thus turn to other ways. This is not to imply that their eyes simply need to be opened. Habits are tough to change, especially when they're rewarded with endorphin production! I can't get specific about how to meet everyone's needs! Each person is an individual, with needs that differ. But I think it is a poor approach to start by trying to quell the urge to feel good. That's the wrong side of the equation to start with; it's better to first try to help people learn to meet their needs, I think. Of course, they often don't want to change...
