DSM-V broke new ground in May of 2013, designating a new disorder called "behavioral addiction." Clinicians immediately wanted to know: how is a behavioral addiction different from an impulse control disorder? What are the criteria for determining that some behaviors are addictions rather than impulses? What, if anything, does this mean in terms of effective treatment?Behavioral Addictions is the first and most authoritative text ever written on the subject of behavioral addictions. This comprehensive work explains the criteria used to determine addiction, the evidence for identifying assorted behaviors as addictions, and the evidence-based treatment for each.With contributions from preeminent experts covering an exhaustive list of behavioral addictions, this book is unique in its coverage of behavioral addictions, their criteria, and treatment. It is a valuable and timely resource for any clinician treating addictions. A guide to understanding the new DSM-V designation of behavioral addiction Defines the criteria for behavior to be considered an addiction designation Discusses the evidence for behaviors meeting addiction criteria Identifies what is now, likely will be, and is not a behavioral addiction per evidence Discusses behaviors formerly considered impulse control disorders Presents evidence-based treatment for each behavioral addiction

The Behavioral Addictions is the first American Psychiatric Publishing title to explore the diagnosis and treatment of patients who suffer from behavioral addictions, extreme forms of which share specific characteristics with severe forms of substance use disorders. These characteristics include tolerance (the need to use the substance or perform the troublesome behavior at higher doses, or more and more frequently, in order to achieve the same effect); withdrawal (feelings of restlessness, irritability, and discontent following abrupt discontinuation of the substance or the behavior); obsessive thinking and planning that block out anything other than obtaining or engaging in the addictive agent or behavior; and accompanying external consequences in related to finances, health, interpersonal relationships, legal affairs, etc. Although not all behavioral addictions are currently recognized as such by DSM-5, both substances and behaviors can hijack a person's pleasure-and-reward brain circuitry, causing great suffering. This case-based volume is practical and engaging and offers many features that make it not only informative but also accessible and entertaining: Behaviors covered, both those widely recognized and those less commonly accepted, involve exercise, food, gambling, Internet gaming, Internet surfing, kleptomania, love, sex, shopping, work, tanning, and e-mailing/texting. Introductory chapters discuss the relationship of behavioral or process addictions to substance use disorders across many spheres, and they provide an overview of the behavioral addictions from neurobiological, theoretical, clinical, and forensic perspectives. Gambling disorder is now classified in DSM-5 as a behavioral addiction, lending credence to the construct of behavioral addictions and providing precedent for future consideration of other behavioral addictions, such as those highlighted in the volume. Each chapter focuses on a real-life case study of a patient with a behavioral addiction. Videos that accompany the volume demonstrate encounters between a clinician and a patient exhibiting an addiction. This puts material on assessment, treatment, etc. into a real-world context. Key points for review and multiple-choice questions are included at the end of each chapter. Not simply an exaggeration of everyday social and personal ailments, these behavioral conditions present clinicians with unique and poorly researched challenges in everyday clinical practice. The Behavioral Addictions helps the reader to determine not only where to draw the line between healthy and unhealthy levels of participation in a behavior, but also how to intervene in ways that are therapeutic, effective, and evidence-based.

Behavioral Addictions: A New Solution to Very Old Problems is a pioneering work. It expands the whole arena of how addiction is regarded and the extensive ground addictions can cover. The book honors early self-help pioneers who noticed certain hallmarks of addiction in behaviors far-removed from their prior drug- and alcohol-based addiction histories. What they noticed is now codified as the Five Diagnostic Criteria for diagnosing addiction-all addictions. The Five Diagnostic Criteria, because they are derived directly from the world of alcoholism and drug addiction, are especially important and useful. Showing up, as they do, in non-substance-based behaviors, the Five Diagnostic Criteria provide the bridge that conclusively proves the existence of Behavioral Addictions, and establishes the foundation for their correct diagnosis and treatment. With this bridge between substance-based and non-substance-based addictions firmly established, addiction, as a concept, can no longer be peremptorily minimized to simply having an "addiction" to some particular drug or some specific behavior. Rather, the underlying reality is an energy-ADDICTION ENERGY-that transcends both substances and non-substance-based behaviors. This Energy can use any outlet, either substance-based, purely behavioral, or both, to work its destructive ways. Behavioral Addictions: A New Solution to Very Old Problems takes a close look at Addiction Energy, fathoming its qualities and characteristics both in their destructive aspects, and drawing from each quality certain hints regarding various healing possibilities. Behavioral Addictions: A New Solution to Very Old Problems also includes a thoughtful description of a range of specific behavioral addictions, and numerous perspectives regarding their correct diagnosis (including self-diagnosis) and treatment (including self-help). The book offers a vision of extended healing possibilities. Finally, Behavioral Addictions: A New Solution to Very Old Problems sends forth a call to the professional field of addictions treatment to, at long last, welcome, and claim, Behavioral Addictions as a rightful part of the field's responsibility and mission.

Addicted? presents different ways to recognize the early and often subtle signs of addiction—much in the same way we learn to detect the early signs of cancer. But, unlike cancer, where people rush to get treatment as soon as they recognize the signs, an addiction typically is faced with great guilt and ambivalence. Addicted? provides questionnaires that screen for a wide array of chemical and behavioral addictions at all stages of development, and ends with a step-by-step guide for how to prepare oneself or someone else to overcome addiction.
