Cool, Hip and Sober

di Bill Manville (Autore)

St Martin's Press, 2013

In a refreshingly clear-headed and informed approach to addiction, Bill Manville, noted writer and radio host of the popular talk show "Addictions and Answers," has compiled a list of eighty-eight questions and answers from "a ton of plain and fancy drunks and dopers" and their family and friends. Cool, Hip & Sober offers valuable advice and information from his guests: noted psychiatrists, psychologists, rehab counsellors, MDs, academics, and more. Here, in first-person detail, are responses to the issues faced by alcoholics, addicts, and their loved ones, such as: How to intervene with a substance-abusing friend; how alcoholics can protect themselves from a relapse; evaluating therapies, both individual and group; Is alcoholism inherited? And much, much more. A brave, transformational look at the treatment of chemical dependency, Cool, Hip & Sober is a captivating, insightful, and essential handbook for overcoming denial and achieving a peaceful, long-term recovery.
