About the Book

"All about Addiction" refers to many different types of addictions. The approaches, emotional upsets and power in fighting addictions are addressed. There are many controversies regarding the causes of addiction, such as genetics, illness, lack of will power, weakness, poverty and social personalities. Pleasure is a very strong motivator for addiction. There is much controversy regarding causes of addiction by the experts. However, each case must be taken on individual bases. Addiction is very powerful, used when you are unhappy or bored, because you turn toward addiction for pleasure, security and gratification. It is changeable, and you can escape it by changing your attitudes and behavior. You can seek help from traditional rehab treatments, twelve-step programs, help from supports groups, family, and your own values. What is more important to you? Being in control or giving in to your desires. Values influence your ability to fight for what you believe in and care about. People with values are in control at all times. If you are concerned about your family, you will not allow yourself to be out of control with drugs or alcohol. Values are the key to escaping addiction. Some people have achieved great self control, or are strong minded, others are weak, and need support of rehab, friends and family. You change when you want to change, and not before you are ready. Motivation cannot be forced on people. You may not be in the right place or right time to change. The addict must distinguish why they rely on addictions. Most people find drugs and alcohol less attractive and less important than making a living, supporting a family and maintaining a position in society. Others may not have reached this point. They may be procrastinating or waiting for a traumatic event. Waiting for a change can have serious drawbacks and may be too late. Thinking you can control your addiction and stop anytime you want may be an illusion. Once under the influence, you make poor decisions. This leads to divorce, legal problems, difficulties doing you work, health problems, financial problems, and low self-esteem.
