Reviews

Jungian psychologist and addiction expert Carder Stout, PhD, sees clients struggling with dependence on alcohol and drugs, sure. But also: dependence on connection, vanity, resentment, love, overthinking. In his new book, We Are All Addicts, Stout posits that any fixation that disconnects you from your innate humanity can be considered addiction.

These solutions to obsessive thinking and compulsive behaviors are unconventional, and previously have been shared exclusively with his patients in therapy...until now. Through exercises, meditations, visualizations and writing, Dr. Stout will demonstrate how to connect deeply to your soul. Readers will not only gain an understanding of the addiction holding them back, but how to overcome it through self-honesty and self-love.
