How to recover from your addiction and take your life backIs it starting to seem like you may never be able to beat your addiction?

Are you tired of lying and hurting your loved ones?

Do you want your family back in your life?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then keep reading…



If you or someone you love struggles with substance abuse, you're not alone.



According to the Pew Research Center and the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 46% of Americans say they have a relative or close friend who's battling addiction, with over 19.7 million adults in the US suffering from a drug use disorder. And there are millions more around the globe.



Sadly, that also means there are millions of people who've lost hundreds of hours of sleep due to withdrawal… millions of mothers and fathers who've spent night after night wondering if they'll get that dreaded call.



People who've had to sell all the things they care about just to make ends meet…crossed all the lines they said they would never cross... who've tried to quit countless times before...who feel hopeless in the face of relapse. I was once in your shoes and am here to show you how to change.



No matter what's happened in the past, there's always something that can be done.



In fact, statistics from the CDC show that 75% of people with an addiction eventually recover.



Which means recovery is mostly a discussion of when, not if.



The good news is you don't have to wait around for when to happen. By following the step-by-step program laid out in this guide, you'll instantly put yourself on the road to recovery.



So you can finally get back to having a life again.

Recovery is a process, but it doesn't have to be lonely.



That's what this book is for. To give you the support and willpower you need to keep up the fight every waking second.



So even in times where you feel like there's no one to turn to… when you're worried you might relapse… and you're afraid you can't control yourself…

The book begins by explaining to the reader the factual elements which assist in substance
abuse like genetics, socioeconomic class, environment and trauma. The book then engages in giving options for finding a solution to addiction and how to identify if someone has an addiction. The book looks at programs designed to assist addiction. The read is pretty easy to follow and a list of key terms which apply to the issue of addiction. It talks about self-forgiveness, ownership and suggestions to help with possible relapse. It talks about dealing with triggers which become an all too common aspect to people who fight against addiction. There is a plan the book has to deal with such things. I am not someone who deals with major addiction in anything, but I would say I have minor ones like coffee, snacking, etc. It really is no different, just on a smaller scale. I could identify quickly some of the things the book covers and found its information enlightening. Regardless of the type of addiction, if you want a tool to help you identify and help you stop some of those things you should definitely read this piece of literature.

Wow! I requested this early review book with hopes for tool to helps stay sober. This 160 page book is clear, concise and simple. Okay, as simple as can be when addressing addiction. As I read, I wondered what resources the author used. There is a reference list at the end that is comprehensive. The tools from the 12 step program was discussed, as well as other techniques my therapist has shown me. Motley speaks from the heart because she is us. I will keep this book close by to review whenever I need some tools.

This book is very helpful with practical advice on staying clean and sober. Similar to the 12 step program at AA. This book will help someone if they are ready to be helped.
