About this ebook

Recovery Myths tackles the pervasive misconceptions surrounding addiction recovery, offering a science-backed approach to achieving lasting sobriety. It challenges the myth of the ""addictive personality,"" the oversimplified view of relapse as a moral failing, and the reliance on willpower alone, revealing how these beliefs undermine recovery efforts.

The book highlights the importance of understanding addiction as a complex bio-psycho-social condition, demonstrating that sustainable recovery is not about battling inherent flaws but about adopting evidence-based strategies. This self-help psychology guide begins by establishing the scientific foundations of addiction, exploring the neurological and psychological aspects.

It then systematically dismantles common myths with compelling evidence and case studies. The book shifts to providing practical tools, such as cognitive behavioral techniques and personalized treatment plans, for relapse prevention and long-term maintenance. By bridging the gap between scientific research and practical application, Recovery Myths empowers individuals, families, and healthcare professionals to navigate the path to recovery with greater understanding and compassion.
