Book Synopsis The Apple Doesn't Fall Far by : Kimberly Owen
Download or read book The Apple Doesn't Fall Far written by Kimberly Owen and published by Publish America. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a world that looks so normal, when you begin to peel back the layers, you find the hell I called life. You will follow a child through a life without hope as my parents introduced me to poverty, drug addiction, alcoholism, and insanity. From the south side of San Antonio, a family destroys itself from dark corners of insanity kept secret from a lack of resources at a time when so little was known about the disease. When drugs enter an already bad family picture, the painting is further distorted. Fleeing a mentally disturbed mother who forced me to have more than one brush with death at the hand of a stepfather with a gun and a heavy fist, I was taught that you can kill, all in the name of love. This forced me to a life on the streets with a father I thought cared. A father with his own addiction that would take me to an underworld that no child of thirteen should ever see. With an in-depth look at the real life of addiction and the consequences, I will take you with me down this road and bring you to the other side, which is called recovery. Not just from the alcohol and the drugs, but from the heart.

Book Synopsis Tending Dandelions by : Sandra Swenson
Download or read book Tending Dandelions written by Sandra Swenson and published by Hazelden Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mothers of addicted and alcoholic children share a deep connection—one that is rarely understood by anyone who hasn’t experienced a similar path. Sharing our perspectives helps us all grow stronger, together. These meditations continue the tradition of Hazelden’s beloved series of daily readings by providing moments of recognition, confession, and healing for those who are realizing that recovery rarely follows a neat or comfortable path. Along the way, we plant beautiful roses only to be injured by their thorns, and we pull up unwanted dandelions that, at times, are our only source of wishes. By sharing the realities we never expected our families to face, mothers of addicted children support each other through experiences that can only be feared and imagined by others. From our shared struggles emerge opportunities for personal growth. Tending Dandelions is a vital source of wisdom, support, and strength that helps us begin our own journey of recovery. “We all need to take a closer look at the things we’ve avoided—the things lurking around in this place where love and addiction meet—so we’re as strong as we can be.” —Sandra Swenson, author of Tending Dandelions
Download or read book Poisoned Apple written by Don Nolan and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What else can I say? I cry black teardrops. Fake tears, a hustler's tears through years and years of drug addiction here in New Orleans. The Big Sleazy, I mean, the Big Easy. This is what I dislike about myself to this very day. My past. All the lying to loved ones, cheating, stealing, in and out of different prisons. Learning and teaching myself how to jose (do time) like a real career criminal. The lifestyle has tattooed itself across my brain after twenty-one years of being a junkie. One point in my life a long time ago, I was a good kid. Played sports, had lots of good friends, came from a prominent, upscale family. Then, a big bad wolf came into my life, a child molester which we delve into when the story unfolds about what happened that truly messed me up as a child. This may have been the start of the downward trajectory I chose in life, and my bottom is what drug addiction has done to me. Turned me into a hustler, a cheat, a liar, a criminal.
Download or read book The Urge written by Carl Erik Fisher and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named a Best Book of the Year by The New Yorker and The Boston Globe An authoritative, illuminating, and deeply humane history of addiction—a phenomenon that remains baffling and deeply misunderstood despite having touched countless lives—by an addiction psychiatrist striving to understand his own family and himself “Carl Erik Fisher’s The Urge is the best-written and most incisive book I’ve read on the history of addiction. In the midst of an overdose crisis that grows worse by the hour and has vexed America for centuries, Fisher has given us the best prescription of all: understanding. He seamlessly blends a gripping historical narrative with memoir that doesn’t self-aggrandize; the result is a full-throated argument against blaming people with substance use disorder. The Urge is a propulsive tour de force that is as healing as it is enjoyable to read.” —Beth Macy, author of Dopesick Even after a decades-long opioid overdose crisis, intense controversy still rages over the fundamental nature of addiction and the best way to treat it. With uncommon empathy and erudition, Carl Erik Fisher draws on his own experience as a clinician, researcher, and alcoholic in recovery as he traces the history of a phenomenon that, centuries on, we hardly appear closer to understanding—let alone addressing effectively. As a psychiatrist-in-training fresh from medical school, Fisher was soon face-to-face with his own addiction crisis, one that nearly cost him everything. Desperate to make sense of the condition that had plagued his family for generations, he turned to the history of addiction, learning that the current quagmire is only the latest iteration of a centuries-old story: humans have struggled to define, treat, and control addictive behavior for most of recorded history, including well before the advent of modern science and medicine. A rich, sweeping account that probes not only medicine and science but also literature, religion, philosophy, and public policy, The Urge illuminates the extent to which the story of addiction has persistently reflected broader questions of what it means to be human and care for one another. Fisher introduces us to the people who have endeavored to address this complex condition through the ages: physicians and politicians, activists and artists, researchers and writers, and of course the legions of people who have struggled with their own addictions. He also examines the treatments and strategies that have produced hope and relief for many people with addiction, himself included. Only by reckoning with our history of addiction, he argues—our successes and our failures—can we light the way forward for those whose lives remain threatened by its hold. The Urge is at once an eye-opening history of ideas, a riveting personal story of addiction and recovery, and a clinician’s urgent call for a more expansive, nuanced, and compassionate view of one of society’s most intractable challenges.

This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction Alcoholism Hangover Remedies Get Rid of the Alcoholic Habit Cannabis/Marijuana Opium Getting Rid of the Opium Addiction/Craving Tea and Coffee Addiction Getting Rid of the Smoking/Tobacco Habit Traditional Medicine Method of Use Cinnamon Honey Cure Alternative Practical Cure Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction This book is for all those people who find themselves addicted to something, without which they cannot do. We know all about drug abuse and alcohol abuse, but you may also be addicted to tea and caffeine. It started out as an amusement or to keep yourself awake when you had to work hard at night, or just as a social recreation in keeping up with your friends. This is how you may have started smoking. Your friends were doing it, so you bent under peer pressure and soon you were smoking like a chimney. This is also how drug addiction starts with “I dare you,” told to you by someone who you admire, particularly, and who you think plenty cool. You better not being hanging out with your smoking friends; you have been doing so well at quitting. There are many people out there, especially doctors, who are going to tell you that addictions of any sort do not go away until and unless you put yourself in the hands of the medical tribe. They are also going to ask you to join Alcoholics Anonymous, where you are going to be put on more drugs so that you can bear the withdrawal symptoms of detoxifying yourself from a drug, alcohol, opium, cannabis, marijuana, or other addiction. Let me tell you, that for centuries, there have been many natural alternative medicines in which people have been getting cured of such addictions, but of course modern-day doctors do not want you to know anything about these therapies. Instead, they would rather have you go through the hassle of withdrawal – all the while, giving you the same drug in smaller quantities so that your body supposedly gets used to that smaller dosage – and you think that you are getting better. Well, my friends, that isn’t necessarily so. Soon you may find yourself craving your recreational drug of choice, breakfast Martini, snort, snifter, whatever you call it, and there you are back again on the drug cartels' statistics list.

Download or read book Never Enough written by Judith Grisel and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From a renowned behavioral neuroscientist and recovering addict, a rare page-turning work of science that draws on personal insights to reveal how drugs work, the dangerous hold they can take on the brain, and the surprising way to combat today's epidemic of addiction. Judith Grisel was a daily drug user and college dropout when she began to consider that her addiction might have a cure, one that she herself could perhaps discover by studying the brain. Now, after twenty-five years as a neuroscientist, she shares what she and other scientists have learned about addiction, enriched by captivating glimpses of her personal journey. In Never Enough, Grisel reveals the unfortunate bottom line of all regular drug use: there is no such thing as a free lunch. All drugs act on the brain in a way that diminishes their enjoyable effects and creates unpleasant ones with repeated use. Yet they have their appeal, and Grisel draws on anecdotes both comic and tragic from her own days of using as she limns the science behind the love of various drugs, from marijuana to alcohol, opiates to psychedelics, speed to spice. With more than one in five people over the age of fourteen addicted, drug abuse has been called the most formidable health problem worldwide, and Grisel delves with compassion into the science of this scourge. She points to what is different about the brains of addicts even before they first pick up a drink or drug, highlights the changes that take place in the brain and behavior as a result of chronic using, and shares the surprising hidden gifts of personality that addiction can expose. She describes what drove her to addiction, what helped her recover, and her belief that a “cure” for addiction will not be found in our individual brains but in the way we interact with our communities. Set apart by its color, candor, and bell-clear writing, Never Enough is a revelatory look at the roles drugs play in all of our lives and offers crucial new insight into how we can solve the epidemic of abuse.
