Do you love an addict or know someone who does?

Has addiction drained your life or that of someone you love? Is addiction slowly killing your relationships? Is love for an addict so strong that it suffocates and destroys the relationships around you with fear, worry, grief or anger? Do undertow feelings not to give up on the addict create distance from everyone else and the world? Are relationships awkward with isolation and avoidance because the topic of the addict in your life has become your story? Is there an unknown reason within that you can’t and won’t give up on the person you love because of addiction? Are you feeling lost with the feelings, words and atmosphere of addiction? Are you wondering why you are here? What are you to do?

This book supplies nitty gritty details of critical moments with firsthand experience from the unique perspective of a sober sibling that instills hope, faith and revitalizes inner strength and courage.

This book supplies tools to neutralize big, fat, hairy scary feelings of fear, resentment and anger to boldly step into the courageous love that is required and necessary to love an addict.

The author’s intellectual, emotional and spiritual curiosity take a unique approach to addiction with courageously experiential rigor, respect and commitment to find the love that exists in all relationships, however imperfect it can be at times. The truth is, we all have addictions and this book supplies gifts of hope, faith and peace.
