Hidden Demons: How to Overcome Fear, Anxiety and Addiction to Thrive in Uncertain Times
‘David has crafted a beautiful narrative of what it means to be an addict. He takes a fearless moral inventory of his life without being cynical or grandiose. He shares tools and techniques based on personal experience and painful self-investigation that really matter and, more importantly, work.
‘All of us fail and dishonour ourselves at times, in worlds of our own making. We throw away our potential that resides in every sunrise whilst mourning at sunset the loss of our days. We are all free to change our stories and the world we have made for ourselves. David shows us how.’
—Paul Sinclair, emotional intelligence and addiction coach, NLP Master
‘This book is written 100 per cent from the heart, and if like me, you have read some of David’s other books, you too will find that he writes in a way that you feel he is talking to you personally. Hidden Demons doesn’t hold back on the graphic past of his life, however hard to digest, and perfectly reflects the message it portrays so accept the truth, for only then will you be able to change.’
—Tony Jeton Selimi, human behaviour expert specialising in the psychology of maximising human potential, TEDx speaker, co-creator of Living My Illusion documentary series, and Amazon international bestselling author of A Path to
‘In his work with senior leaders and in his powerful books, David shows us that the ‘vulnerable’ future is already upon more open and connected societies, more outreach, and more resilient and responsive leaders.’

About the author
David Clive Price
19 books8 followersDavid Clive Price has had a passion for Asia's peoples and cultures ever since he went to Japan in the 1980s and wrote a book about his travels throughout the country. This passion developed further in Hong Kong, where he struggled to make ends meet as a writer in the 1990s, wrote economic reports about Asian countries, and travelled all over the region researching features for international magazines. Finding himself on his pin ends with his Chinese spouse in a walk-up one-room apartment above a nightclub in Hong Kong, he resolved to join the corporate world and became Chief Speechwriter for Asia for one of the world's leading banks. It was 1995. Hong Kong was preparing to return to China. David spent the next few years writing speeches to be given all over Asia and the world. He also began publishing a series of books on South Korea, Hong Kong, China, India, and Buddhism in the daily life of Asia.
Freeing himself from corporate life, he set up his own consultancy advising Asian multinationals and Western companies with Asian operations on their strategic and intercultural communications. This experience, and the challenges he faced launching his own business, form the basis of his new book The Master Key to Asia: A 6-Step Guide to Unlocking New Markets and his innovative Master Key Series on the business cultures, etiquettes and customs of Asia's high-growth markets.

David Clive Price’s Hidden Demons is a raw and redemptive journey into the heart of human struggle and renewal. Written with searing honesty and profound insight, the book confronts addiction, fear, and anxiety not as abstract afflictions, but as deeply personal battles that can be overcome through awareness and courage.
Price’s narrative strikes a rare balance between confession and coaching offering readers both a mirror to their pain and a manual for their healing. His reflections on failure, forgiveness, and growth resonate with the authenticity of lived truth. Each chapter feels like a conversation with a mentor who has walked through darkness and returned with light.
More than a memoir, Hidden Demons is a guide for transformation reminding us that even in our most uncertain moments, we hold the power to rewrite our story and reclaim our strength.
