Addiction isn't a moral failing. It's an adaptation.
In Family Addictus, Joe Van Wie, co-founder of Fellowship House treatment center, reveals how addiction often begins long before the first drink in the first 1,000 days of life, where misattunement and early disconnection create the perfect conditions for substances to feel like missing pieces finally arriving.
Van Wie weaves together neuroscience, attachment theory, and years of clinical experience to show how addiction spreads through family systems like inherited code, how modern culture creates perfect conditions for disconnection, and why traditional approaches often miss the deeper story.
Drawing from the innovative Twelve CORES framework developed at Fellowship House, Van Wie shows how recovery goes beyond abstinence to become a complete rewiring of identity, purpose, and belonging. He explores the neurochemical loops that make substances feel like solutions rather than problems, and how healing happens not through willpower alone, but through connection, community, and reclaiming the pause between stimulus and response.
Recovery means returning to your body, your family, your community, and yourself. It means learning that you're not broken. You adapted. You survived. And now, you're ready to wake up.
Written for anyone touched by addiction (whether personally, professionally, or through someone they love), Family Addictus offers hope grounded in science and compassion rooted in understanding.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Addiction isn't a moral failing. It's an adaptation. In Family Addictus, Joe Van Wie, co-founder of Fellowship House treatment center, reveals how addiction is the brain's logical response to trauma, disconnection, and a culture that has forgotten how to sit with discomfort.Drawing from neuroscience, attachment theory, and years of clinical experience, Van Wie traces addiction back to its true origins: the first 1,000 days of life, where misattunement and early trauma create the conditions for substances to feel like missing pieces finally arriving. He explores how our brains develop coping strategies that can evolve into addiction when life becomes overwhelming.Van Wie explores how addiction spreads through family systems like inherited code, how modern culture's emphasis on productivity over presence creates perfect conditions for disconnection, and why traditional approaches often miss the deeper story. He examines the neurochemical feedback loops between dopamine, cortisol, and survival-mode thinking that make substances feel like solutions rather than problems.Recovery requires more than abstinence. Van Wie introduces the Twelve CORES framework developed at Fellowship House, which addresses the complete rewiring of a life: education, career, arts, family, friendship, health, adventure, altruism, agency, ethos, expertise, and individuality. These become invitations to rebuild identity, purpose, and belonging from the ground up.Recovery means returning to connection with our bodies, our families, our communities, and ourselves. It means learning to pause between stimulus and response, reclaiming the frontal lobe from survival mode, and remembering that healing happens in relationship, not isolation.The book explores how the prefrontal cortex can override the midbrain's emergency responses, how attachment patterns formed in infancy shape our capacity for trust and regulation, and how culture programs our brains like software. Van Wie shows how recovery becomes a kind of spiritual awakening, a remembering of who we are beneath the defenses and coping strategies.Written for anyone touched by addiction, Family Addictus offers a new lens for understanding one of our most misunderstood conditions. We are human beings who adapted to survive and are now ready to wake up. A groundbreaking exploration reframing addiction from moral failing to evolutionary adaptation. Van Wie traces addiction to early trauma in the first 1,000 days, where substances feel like missing pieces finally arriving. This item is printed on demand.
