"OVERCOMING ADDICTION!" with Dr. Donna Marks
Dr. Marks specializes in working with individuals who have been unable to break unwanted patterns of behavior by working through the internal obstructions that stand in the way of achieving one’s life goals. She believes that the combined methods of psychoanalysis and spirituality are a powerful method to not only heal the past and find freedom, but to also obtain meaning from all of those life events—the essential requirements for lasting change and a promising future.
From her article:
When writing, Exit the Maze – One Addiction, One Cause, One Cure, I discovered something so stunning, I could hardly believe my eyes.
Statistics from the World Health Organization, Center for Disease Control, National Institute for Health, and others, revealed the facts I’d always suspected, but never knew for sure. For years, we’ve been hearing that the three major causes of death are heart disease, cancer, and accidents, followed by lung disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, Diabetes, Pneumonia, Nephritis, and suicide. But, unfortunately, we’ve been hoodwinked into a big illusion, and now I’ll explain why.
While it’s true that heart disease is the number one cause of death, what isn’t emphasized is the actual causes of heart disease.
And poor diet, smoking, lack of physical activity, caused by ingesting excessive amounts of sugar and fast foods, and toxic substances, which causes the symptoms; clogged arteries, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., are what cause the deadly illnesses. In other words, people are eating, drinking, smoking, and ingesting chemicals and foods to the extent that they are fueling their own heart disease without any conscious awareness!!!
But let’s not stop there, let’s keep going down the list. Cancer, lung and respiratory failure, Diabetes II, stroke, kidney failure — the research is the same: food, smoking, and substances, and lack of activity are the major causes. Accidents – many due to impairment or addictive texting. Suicide: substance abusers are at the highest risk.
Are you getting the picture? An addiction is anything that a person keeps doing in spite of negative consequences. Almost all illnesses are caused by a behavior that continues in spite of negative consequences (an addiction). And, ALMOST EVERYONE who is ill or dies from these top major illnesses, doesn’t even realize that addiction is what caused their deadly disease.
The time has come for us to Exit the Maze of denial and embrace the freedom of truth. Blame serves no purpose, but we can join together and save lives. Now is the time for freedom and the happiness and good health that we were born to have.

In Which I Am SHOCKED! CALL IN SHOW
Topic: Insomnia and parental neglect
"I have two problems to talk about, although maybe they're one.
"I've suffered from insomnia for a long time now and medical interventions are not helping. I heard Stefan talk about his own a few times, and thought he might be able to help.
"Also, although I'm in my mid-40s, I only recently came to understand how badly, in some respects, my parents neglected me as a child, and I'm trying to figure out how to come to terms with that, and especially how to do better with my own children, whom I fear, lacking a better example, I'm doing the same with.
"To be more specific, growing up, my parents didn't really give me any advice or instruction about things like making friends, girls, building a career, almost anything. And I now I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT ADVICE IS SUPPOSED TO BE for my own sons.
"Thanks for your work, Mr. Molyneux, whether or not I get to talk with you again."
