In this volume, authors James V. Potter, Ph.D., and Paula M. Potter, MA address the seemingly hopeless diagnosis that so many have been labeled with - as an incurable addict. Based on their training, research and clinical experience, Dr. James and Paula Potter have helped hundreds of men and women break the life-controlling issues they have struggled with, and find healing after being properly diagnosed as suffering from Reward Deficiency Syndrome, and undergoing Amino Acid Therapy. There are more men and women in jails and prisons in America than in colleges and universities. Substance Abuse, Addiction, the manufacture and sale of illicit substances played a part in more than eighty percent (80%) of all those who have been arrested and are incarcerated in this country. But, in studies conducted in prisons in three states, it has been found that more than eighty-five percent (85%) of our incarcerated population suffers from Reward Deficiency Syndrome. It is past time for us to stop punishing those suffering from a disease; stop legalizing the substances and activities that are destroying lives; medicalize the problem and provide effective treatment. The diagnosis and treatment of Reward Deficiency Syndrome provide hope to the tens of thousands who have experienced hopelessness for so many years.
