Joe Zychik is an important figure in philosophical and practical
anti-psychology[?]. He believes that
addictions are not driven by
mental illness, but by poor personal choices. Zychik is a specialist in the treatment of
sexual addiction[?] using non-traditional methods based in free
choice[?] and human will.
Zychik's teachings have been adopted and propounded by composer/writer Justin Weaver in his article "Addiction as an Unethical Choice". Weaver, however, reworks Zychik's ideas to support anti-capitalist philosophies.
