What are the causes of addiction?
Habit or disease?
Triggers? What happens next?
(Another NEW concept: The Addiction Reflex)
What happens to the brain?
What are the seven stages of treatment?
Which is better? 12-Step Programs? Smart Recovery? Individual Therapy?
Questions to get started--46 things to ask in treatment.
What are the five most helpful therapeutic aids?
The deep stuff: Family-of-origin relationships, relationships with others, Self-Esteem.
