Book excerpt: We all have humbug thoughts: the deceptive beliefs and outright lies lurking in the dark recesses of our minds, keeping us shackled and miserable. These are the thoughts that insist we're not pretty enough, not strong enough, or not smart enough. They tell us we're worthless and don't deserve happiness. Left unchecked, humbug thoughts drive people to substance abuse, overeating, and other forms of self-medication. To know happiness-and your true worth-you need to free yourself from gloomy and habituated patterns of humbuggery. David A. Gibbs, PhD, LMHC, CAP, ICADC, offers an escape from humbug thinking, backed up by more than twenty years as a licensed clinical counselor and substance abuse professional. Using the stories and anecdotes of our collective childhood, Gibbs recruits the inner child to combat and overcome established negative habits and thought patterns, allowing for an immediate personal transformation. Humbug to Happiness offers an opportunity to start a journey of self-discovery. Discover the real you hiding behind the distorting mirrors of humbug thinking. Once you do, you allow yourself to be set free, and begin a new life filled with purpose, love, and happiness.
