Beyond Addiction: Sally Discovers How to Think for Herself

Beyond Addiction: Sally Discovers How to Think for Herself is the last of the four-book Freedom from Addiction series. The character Sally describes how she grew beyond her need to conform to group or “tribal” pressures.

While being tribal provided her with a sense of security, it came at a considerable cost. No longer willing to pay the price, Sally found better ways of coping with life’s challenges than having others tell her what to believe, value, and how to behave.

Sally discovered how to think for herself. Learn from this story all the many benefits that come from being your own person, free from negative controlling influences that hold you back.

Therapist Dr. Alexander Polgar interprets and comments on the story to highlight how to understand the relationship between tribes, addiction, and freedom.
