Publisher's summary

Whether addicted or not, we all have stories to tell.

The stories of tragedy and redemption found within Tales of Addiction are not about the well known celebrities you find in the usual tabloids. Rather, these stories are true-grit tales told by people you will never meet but whose words will haunt you for months, years maybe. The author collected the stories for over two years through a "call for stories" she put in journals, workshops and lectures. Interwoven throughout, Barbara and her son share their own story of pain and struggle. In this book, you'll learn:

  • How an addict's life begins
  • Understand the difficulties in taking initial steps to uncover denial
  • Intimate details of how many stay straight and sober
  • Gain a new perspective about our national addiction population
  • Learn why that Something More means so much to so many
  • What happens when the addict or alcoholic loses their battle
  • How you can help

A must read

I am a recovering alcoholic. I am 28 months sober. I lost my husband to cirrhosis of the liver. If I hadn’t gone into recovery and started my new life as a sober person. I have no doubt I would be in the ground beside him. This book is a must read/listen for anyone going through any type of addiction.

Tales of Addiction

I was given this book for free in exchange for an honest review.

I'm an addict. I've struggled with addiction for 18 years and as much as I try, I can't shake it. Sometimes you get to a place where you just don't believe anything will ever change. This book helped me remember that there is hope and that it's still possible to change.
