Breaking through shame and denial is essential for any addict who wants to recover, but no one can overcome them on their own. "Your Addict" may have you in a stranglehold of secrecy and self-loathing right now, but it doesn't have to be that way. There is a solution - and it's called recovery.
While it may be a daunting prospect to take those first honest steps toward freedom, it's a lot easier when you've got a compassionate guide to walk alongside you. Addiction therapist and fellow recovering addict Emily Sussman invites you to sling your stinky, callused Addict feet over her warm-and-fuzzy ottoman of Unconditional Love, where you'll be met with understanding, acceptance, and hope.
Written and illustrated with warmth, wisdom, and dynamic storytelling for addicts of all sorts, The Addict's Guide to Recovery is about much more than getting sober. It's about sparking your desire to love and live as Your True Self.
Chapters include: Your Addict vs. Your True Self; A Drug Is a Drug Is a Drug; Recovery Means Learning How to Love; Sobriety Is a Process; Willpower and Control; The Craving Will Pass; Rebounding From Relapse; The Gift of Desperation; Meetings: Misery, Medicine, or Magic?; and Good, Orderly Direction... plus much more.
This overview of the process of recovery is the first volume of The Addict's Guide to the Universe series, a holistic approach to helping recovering addicts heal, grow, and understand themselves. Other volumes in the series will address love, emotions, relationships, and self-actualization.
