Description
What are the roots of addiction? The well-known author Heinz-Peter Röhr relates them to the desire for closeness, love, and recognition. According to him, treating addiction requires a sincere acknowledgment of one's own illness, which can only be processed through mourning. In his book, which discusses various types of substance and non-substance addictions, Röhr does not forget the loved ones of people with addictions and the risks of so-called co-dependency and dependent relationships. He describes how different personality structures (narcissistic, borderline, hysterical, schizoid, etc.) cope with addiction. He discusses the conflict between autonomy and dependence. He seeks the causes of relapses and crises during therapy. The themes of guilt and shame, which are typical experiences for people with addictions, are processed by the author based on the parable of the lost son. The book is the result of his many years of therapeutic work with addicts.
