Sounds True | Unraveling the Link Between Sensitivity and Addiction | Gabor Maté | Insights at the Edge Clips @SoundstrueManyVoices | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
"All addictions and all mental health conditions, in my view, are ways of coping with pain," says Dr. Gabor Maté.
"The more sensitive you are, the more prone you are to fall into one of those diagnostic categories, not because the genes dictate those categories, but because the sensitivity potentiates the pain that you're trying to escape from. That's my understanding."
Dr. Gabor Maté is an author, speaker, and physician who specializes in addiction, stress, and childhood development. His many books include In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts and When the Body Says No. His signature psychotherapeutic approach, Compassionate Inquiry, reveals what lies beneath the appearances we present to the world.
Dive deeper into compassion inquiry through Dr. Gabor Mate's online program, Embracing All of You, also featuring the creator of the Internal Family Systems model, Dr. Richard C. Schwartz.
