Quotes by Lance Dodes (?)

“Addictions are an attempt to preserve control over your feelings and your life and respond assertively to helplessness.”
― Lance Dodes, The Heart of Addiction: A New Approach to Understanding and Managing Alcoholism and Other Addictive Behaviors

“Why understanding the purpose of addiction matters: Because it explains why people with addictions are not weaker than people without addiction: people suffering with addictions put up with helplessness just like everyone else as long as it doesn’t involve major issues for them.”
― Lance Dodes, Breaking Addiction: A 7-Step Handbook for Ending Any Addiction – An Alternative to Alcoholics Anonymous Guide to Understanding Emotional Root Causes and Lasting Recovery

“Any substantive conversation about treatment in this country must reckon with the toll levied when a culture encourages one approach to the exclusion of all others, especially when that culture limits the treatment options for suffering people, ignores advances in understanding addiction, and excludes and even shames the great majority of people who fail in the sanctioned approach.”
― Lance Dodes, The Sober Truth: Debunking the Bad Science Behind 12-Step Programs and the Rehab Industry
