    About this ebook

    Every addictive drug and behavior is as unique as the individual caught in it. This book abandons the recovery-industry “one-size-fits-all” mentality by separating each drug and behavior and provides strategies that are customized, specific and detailed.
    Addiction is a pathological disorder that affects every society and every culture on this planet and has for thousands of years. It is much more pervasive than other clinical disorders; it is a defect of brain chemistry, mental and emotional wellness, spirituality and character loss.
    I have pioneered new terms: AD (Addictive Disorder) & APD (Addictive Personality Disorder) as well as new terms for recovery: AP, RP and SP (Abstinence Phase, Recovery Phase and Sobriety Phase).
    This is one of the only books written by a science-minded, professional who also has 20 years of sobriety from 11 years of narcotics IV using. Most recovery programs and literature today are designed by clinicians who are well educated but cannot personally report on the ineffable experience of addiction and recovery. This lack of personal insight compromises their ability to truly understand and provide the full spectrum of recovery needs.
    When I began my addiction-recovery I was woefully disappointed in the available programs, as it seems nothing authentic and cerebral was available, no matter how much money, time or commitment I had.
    The multi-billion dollar recovery-industry, with less than a 9% success rate, needs an overhaul. The recovery industry regurgitates the same treatments, but AD sufferers deserve modern options that are appropriate for this progressive age. There are drugs in this new millennium that did not even exist when many of the current recoveries were established.
    PROJECT ADDICTION is a usable, innovative, unconventional guide covering the entire spectrum of addictive drugs and behaviors: what it’s like to use them, abuse them, be addicted to them and to liberate from them.
    No stone is left unturned!
    Many people cannot resonate with conventional, recovery-industry platforms and require custom designed, original and innovative paradigms. This book teaches how to create them.

    Krishnanand Scott Spackey has had a life of miracles.Fascinated by spiritual mysteries since he was a child, he went in pursuit of enlightened consciousness when he learned to read at five years old.Immersed in books throughout his life, writing came automatically to him as he was inspired from a wide spectrum of authors, from Shakespeare to Vonnegut, Hesse, Gibran, Toni Morrison and Hunter Thompson.He first book was a memoir of his time with crminal dope-fiends on the streets of Los Angeles and the bizarre culture and supernatrual events. A Stone's Throw-Memoir of a Dope Fiend, won 4 awards.He walked away from a succesful, self-owned commercial contracting company desring a career that was more fulfilling. He became a privtate practice counselor and behavioral specialist with clients around the world seeking his particualr brand of self-empowerment. His innovative addiction work and book changed the landscape of recovery by empowering indoviduals with the knowledge and mthods to customize their treatment.After his Near-Death Experience in 2013, he struggled to co-exist in both the spiritual and material reaiities simultaneously, defying the medical prophecy he would wake from his nine day coma a vegetable and never be self-reliant again. His life-long pursuit of Spiritual Enlightenment was intensified by the nine years of an ongoing Near-Death Experience. He decided to dedicate his author career and counseling work to spiritual concepts.He lives in the California peninsula region providing free workshops and mentors spritual seekers through thier own dark night of he soul.
