For decades millions of alcoholics and addicts around the world have been relapsing in and out of their addictions, failing multiple 12-step addiction recovery programs, losing jobs, families, fortunes, freedom, and health, often resulting in homelessness, even death! Most of these relapses and failed attempts at recovery are usually a result of an inability to get beyond step 3 in the 12-step programs. This book explains that dilemma, and shows how to conquer it and make your last relapse, your last relapse! The author is a relapse free, 30 year survivor of 30 years of drug and alcohol addictions! Making the right choice in Step 3 is the only answer to, and the beginning of relapse free addiction recovery! Making the wrong choice in step 3 will result in failure and relapse over and over again! The choice is ours, and almost everyone reading this has already made one very wise decision by recognizing and facing the denial that's held them captive in their addictions. If you're tired of relapse, and ready to face the Truth, this book has the answers you've been desperately seeking.
Author Biography
Not just 30 + years of being "under the influence" of heavy drinking and drugging, but now an added 30 + years of life's many splendid adventures "above the influence" of drugs and alcohol! A blessing, I hope to share with all of you who read this! 127 First and foremost, I'm a survivor! If you want to be a survivor, you should probably listen to, and follow the advice of one of the few that are still alive to share it! It takes a survivor of drug and alcohol addictions to understand and write a book about drug and alcohol addictions in order to convey the truth about the facts and circumstances surrounding the reality and horror of drug and alcohol addictions. Unless you've "been there, done that," anything else written or spoken can only be understood as hearsay. You've picked up this book because you want to survive! You've been in the pit of hell long enough to recognize that one more encounter with drugs or alcohol might kill you, and you don't like what you've already seen in that hell! The truth is, the hell you've already experienced as an alcoholic or addict, is only a preview of the real hell waiting for you if you make the wrong decision, and choose the wrong God in step 3! The real hell is much worse and no one wants to experience spending the rest of their lives there! Most of the books and reading material available today on the subject of drug and alcohol addictions have been written by men and woman with degrees and titles before or behind their names, who have nothing more than the "hearsay" of others to develop the information they share in their books. Much of that "hearsay" and information has been passed down and found in other books written by other men and woman over time who also have titles after their names! There are very few authors today writing about addictions who are "survivors," and can say "I've been there, done that"! When your ship is sinking, you need to reach out and grab the hand of the person in front of you who is leading the way to survival!
