Cognitive Distortions

Did you know that cognitive distortions like ""all-or-nothing"" thinking can significantly contribute to addictive triggers and relapse? The book argues that addiction is not simply a matter of willpower, but is influenced by ingrained, inaccurate thought processes.

The book is structured to provide a comprehensive understanding of cognitive distortions and their impact. It introduces common distortion types like catastrophizing, and personalization, and explores how they trigger cravings and justify substance use.

Building upon the work of CBT pioneers, this book provides a contemporary perspective, specifically tailored to addictive behaviors. It culminates in a detailed exploration of therapeutic techniques derived from CBT to reframe destructive beliefs and promote healthier choices.
