The Power of Addiction
The Power of Addiction and The Addiction of Power
Canadian physician Gabor Maté is a specialist in terminal illnesses, chemical dependents, and HIV positive patients. Dr. Maté is a renowned author of books and columnist known for his knowledge about attention deficit disorder, stress, chronic illness and parental relations.
His theme at TEDxRio+20 was addiction -- from drugs to power. From the lack of love to the desire to escape oneself, from susceptibility of the being to interior power -- nothing escapes. And he risks a generic and generous prescription: "Find your nature and be nice to yourself."
Sign the Pledge to end prescription drug abuse in Montana.
It isn’t easy to watch the terrible effects of prescription drug abuse. However, too many Montanans watch those they love change; watch families being torn apart; watch them lose everything. YOU can make a difference in preventing abuse and help save our friends, families, and neighbors. Resolve to end prescription drug abuse in Montana.
