By exploring the nature of addiction, the author answers important questions: who and why are more or less predisposed to addiction, what is its neurobiological basis, what is the phenomenon of co-dependence, what can be done to get out of the vicious circle, and where to get the strength to return to normal life.
According to the author, the disease is overcome not by those who have exceptional intelligence or iron will, but by those who every day, step by step, do what is supposed to do. In the book "Addiction and its man" the author tells real stories of people who have reached the bottom and broke not only their own, but also other people's lives. Not all of them managed to survive and save themselves, but the more valuable is the experience of those who, against all odds, were able to overcome addiction and get on the path of confident recovery. This is a challenging but incredibly comforting read that inspires trust in the doctor, for whom there are no hopeless patients, and allows us to recognize that the world is often scarier and more complicated than we would like it to be, but even in the most hopeless situations, even for those who find themselves at the mercy of a merciless disease, there is someone to lean on and something to live for. The examples of these people make you reevaluate your own existence and feel the fullness and fragility of life, even if you personally, as it seems to you, are far away from the problem of addiction.
