● 內文簡介

無論你是「手機依賴症」或是「暴飲暴食」患者、不肯放棄任何細枝末節的完美主義者、是位害怕失敗而不敢嘗試的膽小鬼,又或是擁有「與人面對面交流的恐懼症」障礙者,這本書將讓你理解問題出處與應對方法。

美國知名作詞家威廉斯(Paul Williams)是位嗜酒者,但是他的好友、美國導演編劇傑克森(Tracey Jackson)不是。這兩位興趣不同的好友卻合著了這本探討上癮症的書。

雖然傑克森不是一名癮君子,卻坦承自己與其他人一樣,經常在某些令人困擾的問題中苦苦掙扎,找不到出路。究竟我們要如何逃離這個心理的怪圈呢?我們如何能從那些看似最基礎卻經得起考驗的治療原則中獲救呢?

如果想要扭轉對自己、對生活的觀念,首先就要意識到:你不應該成為自己前進的障礙物。書中提出幾個新論斷為基礎,設計出一個新積極向上的專案,有助於每個人克服自己的缺點,解決不同的障礙,一掃沉悶陰鬱的心態,讓你重獲欣喜之心。

治癒,就是重新開始!

這本書像是一位重要嚮導者,能對你產生鼓舞與振奮的作用,並且幫助你辨別與改變一些不利於適應的行為,讓你真正找到最成功、最健康的自己。是一本專為那些夢想生活在當下、並想要過一種坦誠而快樂生活的人所寫的書。
