Find fresh perspectives on the treatment of addictions and effective methods for helping recovering alcohol and drug abusers in this valuable book! Addiction in Human Development provides practical strategies based on theories of human development for working with clients recovering from alcoholism and drug addiction. An understanding of these theories will help therapists and addictions counselors recognize stages of recovery and better select appropriate interventions for every phase of treatment of addicted clients. Addiction in Human Development shows how a developmental perspective is particularly appropriate to the treatment of alcohol and substance abusers and the patterns involved in their addiction. Disruptions in clients’childhood or adolescent development, stemming from their own or a parent’s drug abuse, can influence their present recovery process. This informative book also describes the developmental course of addiction and provides tools designed to interrupt addictive patterns. In addition, stages in the developmental process of recovery are identified to help therapists select appropriate interventions. Some of the topics related to human development and addiction covered in this insightful volume include developmental deficits and developmental arrest in recovering clients, delayed reactions to sexual abuse and other childhood trauma, stages in recovery from alcoholism or drug addiction, developmental issues in the professional’s own life, and multi-problem families with a multigenerational history of substance abuse. Applying these developmental strategies to work with addicted individuals will significantly improve communication and rapport between helping professionals and recovering addicts and lead to more success in alcohol and drug addiction therapy.

Humans always seek pleasure, humans venerate pleasure, but are humans sentient, or feelers by nature, the way science depicts them? Because if humans are defined as feelers, and if they are expected to behave as feelers, then this remains their meaning in life and in the world, always to feel good, to feel everything, and to live life feeling the best, even addicted. Yet as you notice, humans excel at reasoning the most, and not mainly at feeling, which describes more the animal kingdom. Pleasure is very good, and it is better than pain, yet there is a difference between feeling and reasoning. Because reasoning is more about mastering life and the world, while feeling is about celebrating these. Yet even this statement is insufficient, because feelings are not even abilities within your cognitive system, but feelings are only meant to signal needs and their fulfillment, rewarding or punishing you depending on circumstances. While reasoning is your main cognitive ability, and you should treasure it accordingly. This lack of understanding makes a difference, because if you happen to live your life valuing feelings, including your good feelings, more than your actual human abilities, including all your cognitive abilities, then feelings, and pleasure in special, remain your focus and meaning in life. And with the multitude of artificial sources of pleasure that society offers, good luck to you, because it is only a matter of time before you too become addicted. Since as we notice throughout the book, becoming addicted is not only an error of judgment that you make while trying to feel good in life as everyone else, it is not only a social constraint subduing you as everyone else, but addiction is integral part of the normal natural process of your cognitive system, and it is even used by your subconscious intelligence in various circumstances, in order to render you always eager to fulfill specific highly important activities in life, as it is the case with your natural need for reproduction. You have to comprehend society as it is, because once you are addicted, you become weak, predictable, and controllable, and this is how others take over your living and social niche, to exploit you. While you end up struggling with family problems, finance problems, and health problems, ever after. Would you like to be able to manage your life, your thinking, and your behavior? Then you have to be able to manage your feelings first. And you may do so not forcefully and not directly, since you are not a mechanism, but you can manage your feelings only by learning everything about your feelings, needs, development, addictions, intelligences, reasoning, behavior, society, Life, the world, and your meaning and place in Life and in the world. This book creates an entire model of the human addictions, which is still easy to read, teaching you everything about drugs and how they work, about pleasure and how it controls you, and about the world and how it interacts with you before and during addictions. If you want to learn more about addictions, consequences, and withdrawal, this book is for you.

Through the vivid, true stories of five people who journeyed into and out of addiction, a renowned neuroscientist explains why the "disease model" of addiction is wrong and illuminates the path to recovery. The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease, and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do-seek pleasure and relief-in a world that's not cooperating. As a result, most treatment based on the disease model fails. Lewis shows how treatment can be retooled to achieve lasting recovery. This is enlightening and optimistic reading for anyone who has wrestled with addiction either personally or professionally.

WINNER OF THE 2016 PROSE AWARD IN PSYCHOLOGY Through the vivid, true stories of five people who journeyed into and out of addiction, a renowned neuroscientist explains why the 'disease model' of addiction is wrong, and illuminates the path to recovery. The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease, based on evidence that brains change with drug use. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease, and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do — seek pleasure and relief — in a world that's not cooperating. Brains are designed to restructure themselves with normal learning and development, but this process is accelerated in addiction when highly attractive rewards are pursued repeatedly. Lewis shows why treatment based on the disease model so often fails, and how treatment can be retooled to achieve lasting recovery, given the realities of brain plasticity. Combining intimate human stories with clearly rendered scientific explanation, The Biology of Desire is enlightening and optimistic reading for anyone who has wrestled with addiction either personally or professionally. PRAISE FOR MARC LEWIS ‘[L]ooks at how addiction and brain science collide, and how understanding our brains can help addicts get out of the abyss … [A] very readable, often touching, gateway into the universe of neuroscience and the shadowland of addiction.’ The Sydney Morning Herald ‘The most important study of addiction to be published for many years.’ The Spectator
