The word "addiction" technically means that the brain has become neurochemically dependent on substances ingested into the body. Medical science define addictions as a chronic relapsing brain disease. A working definition for Addictions is "anything taken to the extreme (alcohol, drugs, money, power, control, sex, exercise, food, gambling, work, etc.). Most of the time we focus on the substance addictions and we fail to address the activity addictions (sex, gambling; work; spending). This series of sessions will focus on addictions. Addictions effects the whole person (physically, emotionally, socially, intellectually, and spiritually). The addicted individual forms a relationship with an object. Addictions is a lifestyle. Addicts are lonely.
