I love what he says, it's all so true. I'm a recovering heroin and crack addict. Though Dr Gabor does need to start talking about IBOGAINE as an addiction detox option with close to an 80% success rate. I did it and it saved my life. It resets your neural pathways. If interested please contact me - I can put you in contact with an ibogaine clinic.

...finally, an intelligent, SANE, compassionate approach to human pain, and addiction. This guy needs to be required study in every psych. and counselling course. Dr Maté understands suffering, and its origens, incredibly compassionate and perceptive - he also appears in Zeitgeist Moving Forward, talking about how it is environment which is the ultimate determinant of whether or not a gene is expressed (also ref. Dr. Bruce Lipton, The Biology of Belief).

My son Sean died at age 22 from his ADD medicine Ritalin that he became addicted to. I think my divorce hurt him, and his shame of this supid label ADD and later an addict were too much for him to bear, yet he went for help and we have nothing to do to help them except lie to them. Rehab is only good for 20-30% for 1 year. Please stay away from these addictive ADHD drugs. I think we need to do more research to save lives. Brain scans help. Google the Study on Ritalin by Dr Yong Kim of the NIDA.

In Holland we have been ding for years what dr. Mate is trying to do... Users are not procecuted , we focus on educating ppl rather than telling what not to do , long term addicts can get clean needles under supervision etc. Look up the statistics on drug related problems in Holland and tyne US...
Excellent interview! Very interesting. His work immediately seems so obvious as he is describing his findings...it just makes sense.
