<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A key to achieving a lasting recovery is understanding the thought processes and patterns of addiction. Here is a revised edition of a classic that deals with the complicated and contradictory thinking patterns of addiction, featuring expanded information on depression and affective disorders.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The unpredictability and anxiety associated with the coronavirus pandemic can cloud and confuse everybody's thinking. Excuses, self-deception and addictive logic can harm your recovery and relationships. Don't let it.</b> <p/>In addiction, a person with a substance use disorder undergoes a negative change in thinking and behavioral patterns. A person's character is overthrown by addictive thinking: displacement, projection, shame, and hypersensitivity are addiction's survival mechanisms. With <i>Addictive Thinking</i>, both addict<i>s</i> and loved ones familiarize themselves with these addictive signatures and more, and begin the fight for recovery. <p/> With more than 200,000 copies of <i>Addictive Thinking</i> sold worldwide, the eminent Abraham Twerski, M.D., outlines the destructive and terrifying illogic that marries a person with a substance use disorder to his addiction. "Stinking thinking" and irrational thought are byproducts of addiction and they only worsen with time. Twerski, with a deep psychological understanding, steps in to explain and contextualize all of the actions that arise from addictive thinking. <p/> It might be easier to point at abnormal behavior from an addict and simply think, "there she goes again." But there is reason and consistency underneath the pandemonium. If nothing is learned, if nothing is done, an addict's rock bottom will continue to sink. By educating oneself about the addictive illogic and its reasoning, one will understand why the person behaves as she does and how everyone in her life becomes controlled by addiction. Then control can be taken back.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr. Abraham J.
