Winner of the eLit book award for self-help & Award-Winning Finalist in the "Self-Help: General" category of the 2014 USA Best Book Awards Kristen Johnston Emmy award winning actress & NY Times best selling Author says: "Veronica Valli has written one of the clearest, most fascinating & truly helpful books on addiction I've ever read. To me, it's up there with 'Clean' by David Sheff, except from the viewpoint of someone who's in long term recovery. Whether you're struggling now & need help, have struggled in the past, or you've ever loved an addict, this book pierces through the confusing and terrifying misinformation that surrounds this disease. From the first page to the last, I was completely enthralled by this brilliantly researched, refreshingly straightforward & delightfully compelling book." At last, a book that reveals why alcoholics think, feel and behave the way they do. This book looks into the heart and mind of the alcoholic; it explains their thought processes, how they feel and why they behave so self-destructively. Written by an addictions therapist and recovered alcoholic, it answers the question that every alcoholic and their loved ones have always asked, 'Why do I/they drink this way?'. Veronica understands that recovery is a journey and the steps that need to be taken in order to achieve successful, sustainable sobriety. This book, written in easy to understand language, isn't prescriptive but offers a deep understanding of the vital components that drive an alcoholic - and walks you through the steps you need to take to recover. It is simply a must read for any struggling alcoholic or drug addict, and their loved ones. Live the life you were meant to live. Learn how to mange your feelings to stay away from alcohol. A great resource for treatment centre's Recommended by addictions counsellors and treatment centre managers. This book is a great resource for clients early in recovery and a perfect accompaniment to the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. Scroll up and grab a copy today.
