Revenge: The High That Hurts

Kevin, a devoted father and minister, says the betrayal of his marriage left him in pieces—even after winning full custody and a $750,000 judgment in court when he sued his ex-wife's lover for breaking up their marriage. Dr. James Kimmel, author of "The Science of Revenge: Understanding the World's Deadliest Addiction--and How to Overcome It", joins Dr. Phil to explain how the need for revenge hijacks the brain like a drug—and why so many people get stuck in a destructive loop long after the pain has passed. Through a five-step process called the "nonjustice system," Dr. Kimmel works with Kevin to help him break free from grievance and finally reclaim his peace. Dr. Phil breaks down the emotional science of revenge, the illusion of justice, and the power of choosing healing over hatred.
