About the Book

Opioid addiction isn’t a moral failing – it’s a no-fault illness rooted in genetic vulnerability, childhood trauma, social determinants, and the very way these drugs reshape the brain. In this breakthrough guide, Dr. Peter Coleman demystifies how addiction takes hold and explains why standard approaches often fall short.

Drawing on over forty years of clinical research and frontline care, Complete Freedom From Opioid Addiction arms readers, whether they’re in recovery, caring for someone who is, or guiding others professionally, with the practical tools and insights needed to reclaim lives and achieve lasting freedom from opioid addiction.
