Understanding addiction is no longer just about understanding neurons or genes, broken brain functioning, learning, or faulty choices. Oliver J. Morgan provides a fresh take on addiction and recovery by presenting a more inclusive framework than traditional understanding. Cutting-edge work in attachment, interpersonal neurobiology, and trauma is integrated with ecological-systems thinking to provide a consilient and comprehensive picture of addiction.

Humans are born into connection and require nourishing relationships for healthy living. Adversities, however, bring fragmentation and create the conditions for ill health. They create vulnerabilities. In order to cope, individuals can turn to alternatives, "substitute relationships" that ease the pain of disconnection. These can become addictions.

Addiction, Attachment, Trauma, and Recovery presents a model, a method, and a mandate. This new focus calls for change in the established ways we think and behave about addiction and recovery. It reorients understanding and clinical practice for mental health and addiction counselors, psychologists, and social workers, as well as for addicts and those who love them.

I started reading this to better understand my husband's addictive tendencies but got nothing out of the book. the author believed that all addictions are a result of some childhood trauma or other traumatic incident and that's just not the case I've experienced

seems to be directed at mental health counselors

it is good, but it is more for someone who studies stress/adiction, not for someone who wants to overcome it.

good book

There is definitely some good information in this audiobook however a lot of it is repetitive - the book probably could’ve been half the length

Good info but stretched out way too long
