Description
Do you know someone who seems to revel in crisis? Someone who creates tense situations even where there are none? We often label such people as "hysterics" or "chaotics," yet they suffer too, as they find themselves in a constant state of stress and inner uncertainty. These are individuals who, through drama, address the feeling that they are not "alive" enough, that there is some barrier between them and others, that something is wrong in their lives. Similar to other types of addiction, their tolerance for what they experience increases, so they need increasingly critical situations and draw their loved ones into ever greater dramas. According to the author, the remedy for the addiction to drama is the feeling that the individual belongs somewhere, that they have real relationships with others. Lyons also shows that a similar mechanism occurs in the overall setting of society. The book will help you uncover the addiction to drama in others as well as in yourself, and it will offer various methods to treat this condition through meditation, visualization, thought work, breathing, or journaling. Therapists working with clients who have certain personality disorders will also find the book useful.
