As someone using my powers for good, I have very bad news. My sister and I had similar early traumas. She became addicted to drugs & alcohol. I became addicted to success in school, the arts, became a doctor & humanitarian, have won awards, published books, been on TV, give speeches, got tenure as a college professor, etc. I’ve also never deviated from my goal weight, never miss a nail or hair appointment, dress perfectly, send gifts to celebrate milestones in the lives of my many friends, and my perfect home is clean at all times. Who do you think is better off? Me or my sister who has spent 20 years in a trailer park on drugs? We are EXACTLY the same. I get treated better by society bc I’m a successful doctor & performer, but we’re both addicted, because we both have unresolved trauma we need to distract from.

At least your wise enough to see the stigma in society and know that you both have relatable problems just handled in completely different ways because of your different in wiring or personality..most can't see what is in front of them in such Reality. I hope both of you are able to heal from whatever trauma you had to endure as children ❤️ Remember you always hold your own keys to your dungeon. NAMESTE

@@Steckybecky57 Yeah, I’ve had about 15 years of therapy, so I hope I’m better now, but I suspect I was insufferable in my 30s, especially. I wouldn’t have even KNOWN my sister and I were the same before therapy! I used to think some people were “better” than others, because that was how I comforted myself that I could make myself better and acceptable/lovable. But that’s not how it works.

Finally, someone in the profession that will say it's not a disease. There's choosing to do it, addiction is its own issue, and choosing to stop. The problem seems to be that the brain remembers without being prompted. Follow the memory and there will be relapse. Drinking was to forget? Sobriety means to forget drinking.

I have an addictive personality. I'm 75 and have a lifelong addiction to food(carbs, sugar ,etc). In my early 60's my husband died & I "took up" alcohol. Through AA I've been sober for 7+ years but my overeating is out of control. How do I "shift" or harness my addiction to something positive?

I love the E brain idea for ADHD, because when I work in the classroom some of those hyper kids are my favorite, and I just want to let them go outside and play because they are just not designed to sit still all day and listen. It is good for them to practice being still some, because they do need to learn, but not to that extreme. On a side note: My mom always asks me to bring the sweet potatoes to holiday dinner and until I heard you say "Sweet Potato Crunch" I thought it was uneccessary to even bring sweet potatoes. 😃

Thank you for this wonderful video. I have been sober for 15 years this year. I have ADHD as well an addictive personality. I am constantly trying to reign in my addictive focus so it ends up not being a waste of time or self destructive result. I was in a creative profession that allowed me to explore ideas, travel, create, as well have some great experiences. I had also pursued a few entrepreneurial things separate from that. My biggest challenges were not being business savvy, being highly introverted so I was closing doors to opportunities or support in order to not be overwhelmed, and not being clear on what goal I really wanted so squandered what I did make.. Somehow after all these years, I’ve reduced myself to just getting by…when all the opportunities I had could have led to a better result. This appears to be a family/generational pattern. So I guess I’m wondering how one truly defines what they want when it’s not clear, or how do they thrive when shifting all their addictive energyif there’s something self destructive or limiting within them driving the boat?

Alexander theory makes lot of sense. My experiance of working with drug addicts for their treatment also validates that open environment, good therapuetic n personal contact, holistic spiritual goal n binding with NA peers has played deep role in bringing that miraculous change we call recovery in many persons i know or helped. U rightly pointed out the enormous success of AA/NA progame is because of the factors similar to Alexander's theory. Disease model based on genetic predisposition can be a part of the dislocation factors. Very insightful vlog. Thanks.

I do think it's a superpower. I'm his mother. I know them well. And to be honest? I think anybody would have trouble with it. In fact, just about every addict I've ever encountered has gifts. Stellar ones. They're either scared silly or frustrated Beyond repair in their eyes. In listening to you and a couple of others, I've come to examine myself as well. It started out with places I might be enabling? And has moved into wait a minute. I'm covering up stuff too. I wasn't expecting that. Thank you for making these videos.

3:10 - Counselors and people often insisting on having life "balance". I would agree with Amber's saying no, not always. But because of HALTOO*, I would also say yes, "balance" IS needed, just that it needs to be customized - it's not one size fits all. Determining the right mix of balance - self care along wirh productivity, drive, and focus is different for everyone and needs to be seen as more of an individual thing. * HALTOO - ADHD'rs especially, need to watch out that they don't sacrifice their physical and mental health with too long, sometimes excessive bouts of obsessive productivity and work on a goal (or other fixation including addiction). HALTOO means not getting too Hungry, Angry, Lonely (I would add sad), Tired, Overweight and Out of shape. It's actually HALT but i add the last two OO's because that applies to me. So its very important - critical even - that everyone but especially people with obsessive focus, goals, interests and drives figure out a lifestyle (schedules, simple systems, habits, routines, minimalism, online bill pay, services like Instacart and house cleaning, meal prep, etc) that supports their goals and productivity and not at the expense of their other needs, responsibilities, essential self care, nutrition, excercise, physical and mental health AND.... SOBRIETY. Alex & Leila Hormozi talk about this. Others' definitions of "balance" is not always right for them - they see their life in terms of seasons where sometimes their goals require a season of lots of long hours and deep focus like when writing a book or building a business. Entrepreneurs or inventors / creators still need "balance", it just might look different than what others think it is. The Hormozis swear by obsessive focus for achieving their goals HOWEVER they've incorporated their own form of balance into their lives with habituated and systemized simplicity, minimalism and self care and schedule that works for them. (Their sleep, fitness, nutrition, daily nature walk, even socialization - over dinner which is always at a restaurant and always at 5pm cuz nature walk is after and bed is at 8pm cuz wakeup is 3am and deep work until 9am, workouts in the afternoon, etc.). And James Hoffman, famous coffee entrepreneur, says you CAN be successful and not totally burned out on hustle culture, just know the business building phase requires long days but eventually you can systemize and get to a more sustainable pace and life. But I guess I'm saying that what's needed is a customizable solution - where you figure out what you DO need in terms of challenge, worthy goal, with how to incorporate the other things you need in life in terms of self care, relationships, chores, other responsibilities, etc.that will keep your productivity and forward momentum sustainable while not burning yourself out.

Also, there are plenty of brilliantly, obsessive, creative & hardworking people who are well producing people who are in active drug addiction too. Just because you put your obsession into something productive doesn't mean that you won't continue to be addicted to a harmful drug as well.

I have been sober (mostly) for about a yr and a half now. I have been advised by my sponsor to focus on my 12 step work and building a recovery network. I used to have a natural interest and talent for art but i get so angry and frustrated now when i try to create something. I also used to like amateur dramatics and creative writing but struggle with the thought of dabbling in these again as i do become obsessive which usually leads to burnouts. I am so unbelievably angry and frustrated and sad these days that i am feeling really hopeless. I have been implementing a keep fit routine but i am feeling so unbelievably unhappy with my life. Ppl in my recovery group say its guilt and i need to forgive myself etc. My sponsor also wants me to ask myself if i am "well enough" for work which i dont understand how to answer that question. Im so confused and all i have to go on at the minute is prayer,meditation and faith that things will work out but i am acutely aware that I am not doing ANYTHING with my life. Im 37 and worked as a nurse for 14 yrs which i didnt like. I am not feeling any motivation for life atm and am just so tired all the time

Hello. My fiancee knows she has a problem with Alcohol but is afraid to get treatment because she believes she may have her kids taken away. She's told me that when I tell her I'm proud of her for cutting back, even just a little bit, it makes her want to continue to cut back. The problem is she freaks out when stress hits and goes right to the bottle. She also knows that her drinking is affecting her health. She admitted that to me the other day. Our biggest arguments are about her drinking and how she becomes a different person when she drinks in excess. She is willing to seek help if it's outpatient so I sent her a couple of your videos, which she was very open to. The old saying of: "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink", holds true. I guess my question is, how to I get my "horse" to "drink"?

Maybe let her know that outpatient detox can provide medication that makes withdrawal much easier. Also maybe start talking her about mindfulness. If she is going to drink, maybe she can do it more mindfully and eventually realize it doesn't do her any good. Also, look up the Sinclair method

As encouraging this was, I don’t believe highly successful people are addicts and use their addictive brain to be successful. I believe they have a dream and a desire, there are persistent have determination, the discipline and the drive. As a lot of time and energy can be wasted in addiction, that doesn’t mean they were not successful while in addiction. Of course, if you’re only focused on where you’re next drug comes from and your high and non-functioning , then that energy can be much better used in healthy productive ways. Life can be so much better! A lot of Sex/Porn addicts are actually very smart and successful in business, but lack in emotional intelligence.

I will say this. My ex-husband went to rehab five times, followed by attending AA. Now.. it didn't work for him because he didn't want to be sober, and he is also addicted to cocaine. The AA meetings I attended with him seemed useless to me. Mostly, I witnessed a lot of people chain smoking, drinking coffee, and retelling the same stories. They say if you genuinely complete the twelve steps, you will succeed in achieving sobriety.

Great video! Thank you so much for using your superpower! I'm sober (alcohol) for two months now, totally obsessed with learning everything about addiction and sobriety..🤓I'm ADHD undiagnosed, but I defintely find myself in the type of personality of your description. I really like the idea of neurodiversity. Hope I'm going to find my superpowers..🦸‍♀ Greetings from Switzerland
