Acerca deste livro eletrónico

Behavioral Addictions explores the hidden side of everyday behaviors like shopping, internet use, and work, revealing how they can transform into destructive compulsions. Unlike substance addictions, these behavioral patterns often lack obvious physical signs, making them especially challenging to recognize and address. The book emphasizes the shared psychological and neurological roots between behavioral and substance addictions, highlighting similar patterns of reward-seeking and loss of control. It examines how societal pressures, such as consumerism and digital connectivity, contribute to these compulsions, providing a comprehensive understanding of these increasingly prevalent issues.

The book progresses systematically, first defining core concepts like impulse control disorders and the addiction cycle. It then delves into specific behaviors, such as shopping addiction, internet addiction, and workaholism, examining their triggers, consequences, and strategies for change. By integrating clinical studies, neuroimaging research, and personal accounts, Behavioral Addictions offers a unique and integrated perspective.

It culminates in an integrated model for addressing these issues, equipping readers with practical strategies and resources for self-assessment and positive change.
