Overview

Addiction affects countless lives, leaving individuals and families feeling trapped in a relentless cycle of despair and confusion. Those impacted often appear to be coping or even excelling, and many are high achievers. Yet behind the facade, they may be silently struggling, edging closer to breakdown. What causes addiction? Why do some fall prey to it while others remain untouched? What warning signs should we be looking for before it's too late? And, crucially, how can individuals struggling with addiction recognise the problem, break free, and reclaim control of their lives? This insightful and comprehensive guide, created in partnership with Steps Together Addiction Rehabilitation and Wellness Centre, explores the complex, interconnected nature of addiction. It examines the psychological, emotional, and physical factors that drive dependency. Drawing on real-life experiences and expert knowledge, it offers a compassionate understanding of addiction's root causes and its profound impact on individuals and their loved ones. By unravelling how addiction begins, why it persists, and the compulsions that sustain it, this book highlights the essential role of support and recovery in long-term well-being. Whether you're searching for answers for yourself, concerned about someone close to you, or simply wish to have a deeper understanding of addiction, this guide offers practical advice on recognising the signs, knowing when to act and, most importantly, taking the first steps towards healing
