ADDICTION: A collection of poetry, short prose, and personal stories from around the world on the theme of addiction
ADDICTION
"Addiction is a neuropsychological disorder characterized by a persistent and intense urge to engage in certain behaviours, despite substantial harm and other negative consequences."
It is undeniable that putting thoughts, feelings and emotions into words, on paper, either with poetry or in a short story format, can be both therapeutic and an incredibly effective method of self-help and healing. In this brave and uncompromising collection 61 writers and poets in 13 countries (Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, England, France, Germany, India, Malta, Nepal, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Spain and the USA), explore the themes of addiction, either from their own personal perspectives and experiences, or from the experiences of friends, family and people close by.
Covering both substance and behavioural addiction, an anthology on this subject is undoubtedly thought-provoking and emotional, but also positive and uplifting too as, for many, putting their feelings into words has set many on the road to creativity, healing and ultimately recovery.
