Take back your life from addictive and out-of-control behaviors with a little help from Dr. Faith G. Harper and her characteristically warm wit and wisdom.
We have almost all been addicted to something at some point, or had a habit spiral out of control. But what does that mean? What exactly are addictions and out of control behaviors, why do we get caught up in them, and how do we get our lives back?
Bestselling author Dr. Faith Harper helps those of us struggling (or supporting others who struggle) with problematic use of alcohol, drugs, gambling, work, food, sex, shopping, screens, gaming, or anything else where we’ve crossed a line. Her perspective is down to earth, realistic, and refreshing.
You’ll learn about the brain science behind addiction, how to tell if something is a problem or about to become one, how to find your way out of unhealthy behaviors, and how to avoid passing them down to the next generation.
No matter what paths you’ve taken in life, you can absolutely learn to fulfill your needs in ways that are healthy for yourself and the people around you. If you’ve struggled or are struggling with addiction, this book can give you the tools you need to break its hold on you.
Inside you’ll find:
- The brain science of why our brains get this way
- Clear-headed help to figure out whether or not something is a problem that we need to address
- A wide range of strategies for reining in or stopping habits or situations that make our lives feel out of control
- A compassionate and understanding voice
- Discussion of the benefits and drawbacks of 12 step programs, harm reduction, and other pathways to recovery
- Insight into how we can help ourselves as well as loved ones who are struggling with addiction
