HYPOIC'S HANDBOOK"THE EVOLUTIONARY ORIGIN, GENETIC BLUEPRINT, AND NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL FOUNDATION OF ADDICTION: HYPOISM"THIS BOOK IS ABOUT HYPOISM, THE DISEASE OF ADDICTIONS, THE ORIGINS, THE BIOLOGY, AND THE REALITY HYPOISM - A DISEASE of LIMBICDIVERSITY, or Don't confuse me with the facts, I've already made up my mind, or everything you need to know about ADDICTIONS but don't want to. Do you see those four bold, capitalized and italicized words or phrases above? These are glossary words. You will see them throughout the book. ITALICIZED, CAPITALIZED AND BOLD WORDS are the words defined in glossary. I put a lot of new ideas and explanatory information in the glossary rather than in the text of the book in order to improve the flow of ideas in the book. Make sure you read these definitions as you go along. Most, if not all, of the definitions are completely new and are derived from the new PARADIGM of Hypoism. The words are used in a completely new way to conform to this paradigm. You might even read the glossary first, that's up to you. Pronunciation guidelines: Hypo as in hypodermic plus ism as in antidisestablishmentarianism = Hypoism and, hypo plus ic as in hypodermic= HYPOIC e-mail comments and questions to: dan.umanoff.md@gmail.comIn addition, if anyone is interested in helping me set up a foundation for the advocacy, legal or otherwise, of addicts (The N4A), please let me know. (see DISCRIMINATION in glossary)
Dedicated to all hypoics, past, present and future, dead, recovering and active, and especially my very alive daughter, Nicole and son Zak, both terrific hypoics, and my old friend, David Hannington.©9/96
