Overcoming Addictions

Addictions come in many forms: drugs, alcohol, pornography, gambling, food.  Today I was fortunate to be able to speak with Michael Cartwright, a respected addiction and behavioral healthcare entrepreneur about ways to overcome addictions.

Over his seventeen-year career, Michael has been instrumental in setting up addiction treatment centers across the United States which have served over 20,000 patients and was nominated by Senator Ted Kennedy to the Senate Health Committee.  He currently serves as the Chairman of the Board of American Addiction Centers.

His new book, Believable Hope, outlines the 5 Elements to overcome any addiction.  Today we focused on the rising trend of people overusing prescription drugs and touched on food addictions.
