Description

Addiction is all around us. It confronts each of us individually, and in the behavior, we encounter daily. The underlying cravings that have hijacked our reward circuit systems control our lives. Addiction is complex, and we are predisposed through groups of genes and our environments to become addicts. There is help for both substance and behavioral addicts, which have improved with the use of contemporary medication-assisted and psychotherapeutic treatments. These, however, may be limited in their efficacy, so the use of classic hallucinogens has been found to beneficial in assisting psychologists in treating complex addictions. Peyton Abrams guides readers through the process of addiction, how it confronts everyone, where science has presently brought us, the best treatment options, and incorporates some general discussion on the complexity of the disease.
