The Hidden Super Power of Addiction is based on 45 years of
professional and lived experience and looks at the 'Celebration of
the addictive brain' and the tremendous inherent skills of people
with this particular wiring. Sue Cox explains the way to harness
and embrace that exceptional wiring and shows how amazing it can be
for a person who has left behind their 'drugs of choice' to divert
and transform that relentless drive, and become empowered. More
than anything, this is a hopeful book of transformation and
empowerment. Sue uses a cross-pollination of skills to explore this
positive approach, from Chinese medical theories to neuro-science.
The Hidden Super Power of Addiction explains how the human brain
works, how life events influence us and how the two interact to
make us who we are. It spotlights some outdated and false
assumptions, and explodes some of the long held negativity that is
levelled at addiction and how some addiction services focus is
self-serving not on the addicted person. Sue is constantly
frustrated by the mis-information on addiction including why the
concept of seeing an addicted person as 'ill' is disempowering and
limiting to real recovery and rather than continually concentrating
on the individual's 'defects' and trying to find where they are at
fault, she suggests that it is our quickly moving society where the
problem lies and addicts themselves are just born in the wrong
century!
