About

Unhooked Thinking is more than a conference or an enquiry into the very nature of addiction in the widest sense of the word; it is a tendency, a movement away from the medicalisation, stigmatisation and pathologising of human unhappiness. The first Unhooked Thinking conference was in April 2006, the second in May 2007, both in Bath, UK.

    I have worked in the addiction industry in the US on and off for years, then I myself lost control of my humanity and allowed cocaine & alcohol to become my buffers against the beauty and pain of being human. I find the words here refreshing, comforting and like some of what you’ve said: I just stopped using…like Coltraine & Miles, I was in the mountains and I just stopped drinking and using. It’s been a few months. And I’ve been reading your Blog for ‘support’ and thought I’d join the conversation.
