Living with depression forever.... Perhaps even passing on negative energy to loved ones affected by your pain. Look, it's not all doom and gloom, but the reality of the matter is you have control of the moment. Right now is no greater opportunity than yesterday or tomorrow.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Everyone knows that regular exercise and weight training lead to physical strength. But how do we strengthen ourselves mentally for the truly tough times? And what should we do when we face these challenges? Or as psychotherapist Amy Morin asks, what should we avoid when we encounter adversity? Through her years counseling others and her own experiences navigating personal loss, Morin realized it is often the habits we cannot break that are holding us back from true success and happiness.

The rules for living in the real world have changed, because the world we live in has changed. Much of the conventional wisdom the last generation has passed on just doesn't apply like it once did. If you want to win, and win big, and, more importantly, keep what you work so hard for, you need a crystal-clear view of how the real world works - not how you wish it worked, but how it actually works.

You know what the wealthiest of people of all times have in common? Self-discipline. This blend of two seemingly unimportant terms combined by a hyphen has the power to make or break your life, career, and aspirations. It is that one trait that can help turn tables and bridge the gap between you and your goals. It’s easy to get distracted by the things around us, which leads to deviation from the right path. Even comparatively affluent people leading happy lives are bereft of this magical trait, and this is exactly what is keeping them from rising to the apex.

Publisher's Summary
Have you ever wondered what it might be like to be an addict? Do you know someone that is an addict and can not fathom how they got to that point in their lives?
Addicts are not always hooked at their first taste of drugs. Not all drugs effect everyone in the same way. One person may take one sip of alcohol and never put the bottle down for decades. Conversely someone may try crack, heroine, or crystal meth, which are far more addictive, and not get hooked at all.
Each person’s body and chemical makeup is different from each other. We all have different vices depending on our personality types, genetic predisposition, stress and hormone levels, and what mental state of mind we are in.
This audiobook will reveal my personal story and my addictions as I battled with depression, drugs, and struggled to find meaning and direction in my life. I will tell my story to the road to recovery and the three principals that I applied to life to get me there.
Many people do not know whether they have an addiction problem until it is too late. Many people believe that it is a choice. We do not choose to be or become an addict. If I was given a choice before I tried drugs, then I would have chosen another route.
If someone said told me that I had a tendency or tendencies to become an addict, then I would have never tried it to begin with. My situation started with MDMA. This drug weaseled it sway into my life one day and I wish I had never made that choice to take it.
My Story
I can pinpoint the exact day that everything went wrong. It did not happen overnight like some may think. I was in control, at least that’s what I told myself. I thought I could do drugs when I wanted to and remain in control; however, that is not how it works.
My addiction started on prom night. I was the Captain of the Wrestling team, Honors Society, track team, baseball team, Yearbook Sports Editor, Umpired Baseball, and found time for community service hours as well. One could say I should have known better, and at one point I did.
So, you may ask, what went wrong? For me it was being let down by my long-time friend and prom date. She stood me up at prom to go and do some MDMA. My prom date left five minutes after we showed up and then took the limo and left me alone. I took it personally. I told myself that...

not enough detail "what it is like to be an addict"
each detail should be expanded upon.
to give someone an idea of what it's like they need the full story
DOC
What that drug makes you feel or doesn't make you feel
what you have done to get that high
what you went through physically and mentally on it and getting off it
how many friends you lost to the drug for the drug because of drugs..
truth is you won't know what it's like to be a drug addict unless you are..

Don't Let Your Kids Kill You is a landmark work that dares to focus on the plight of the confused, distressed parent and not the erring child. It sets aside any preconceived ideas that parents are to blame for what is essentially a full-blown global crisis. Drawing on interviews with parents who have survived the heartbreak of kids on drugs, combined with his own experience, Charles Rubin provides practical advice on how parents can help themselves and their families by first attending to their own needs.

As the heart-wrenching personal stories in this book reveal, family members do not cause their loved one's addiction. Nor can they control or cure addiction. What family members can do is find support, set boundaries, detach with love, and eventually discover how to enjoy life whether their loved one finds recovery or not. Addict in the Family is a book about sorrow, deception, and pain. More importantly, it is a book of comfort, hope, and understanding for anyone struggling with a loved one's addiction.
