Description
People from all walks of life often lose themselves in pursuing counterfeit pleasures – cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, thrills, sex, food, gambling, and online fantasies to name just a few. How does the pursuit of pleasure result in compulsion and loss of control? Craving for Ecstasy and natural Highs addresses this fundamental question and then explores positive ways to achieve lasting happiness and fulfilment. Readers will gain important insight on how to improve their own quality of life and will learn how to offer support to clients, students, family, and friends whose lives may be compromised by hedonic dependencies.
Students of addictive behaviours and anyone interested in discovering healthy means to satisfy the drive to alter consciousness will find this book compelling.
