ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Dr. Gabor Maté explains why addiction is not simply a choice, but often a response to pain.
In this bite-sized clip from our interview, Gabor challenges the stigma around addiction, explains why we need to ask “why the pain?” instead of “why the addiction?”, and explores why awareness and peace may be the true opposite of addiction.
