Discussion > Finally, the way through addiction

Dr. Dodes, your understanding of addiction is brilliant. I have been replacing one addiction after another (all food, chocolate, carob, popcorn) for 60+ years, tried almost everything to stop but nothing has ever been successful.
When I read the first pages of Breaking Addiction I felt euphoric and knew that this time I had found the answer to breaking the food addiction vice I've suffered my entire life. For a long time I've noticed that I got the "hit" every time I merely thought of what I would eat--before even eating the thing. You totally verified this intuition and I knew that through reading your books I would understand the helplessness/hopelessness, not-in-control foundation in a life that makes addiction an alternative. I am excited to also recommend your books with others.

Thank you for your service. May your message become universal.
