Books Descriptions
For the past decade, author Tian Dayton has been researching trauma and addiction,
and how psychodrama (or sociometry group psychotherapy) can be used in their
treatment. Since trauma responses are stored in the body, a method of therapy that
engages the body through role play can be more effective in accessing the full
complement of trauma-related memories. This latest book identifies the
interconnection of trauma and addictive behavior, and shows why they can become
an unending cycle. Emotional and psychological pain so often lead to self-medicating,
which leads to more pain, and inevitably more self-medicating, and so on--ad
infinitum. This groundbreaking book offers readers effective ways to work through
their traumas in order to heal their addictions and their predilection toward what
clinicians call self-medicating (the abuse of substances [alcohol, drugs, food],
activities [work, sex, gambling, etc.] and/or possessions [money, material things].)
