In Susan Powter's astonishing new book she tells her story of pain and recovery from alcoholism and offers a complete programme for ending the perils and painful addiction to alcoholism.
In her wildly successful bestseller STOP THE INSANITY!, Susan Powter broke the mold of diet books forever. Now she sheds new light on achohol addiction and recovery with a groundbreaking plan of action for the millions of people who are suffering from this disease. 'If alcohol is an illness, then why doesn't anyone ever talk about a cure?' asks Powter in the trademark, no-nonsense voice that has endeared her to millions. And in this fresh, probing, and intelligent book, she tackles the subject head-on, presenting cutting-edge research, along with her own personal stories, in a plan for recovery anyone can follow. It is at once an astonishing confession, a triumph of healing, and a lifesaving prescription for overcoming the addiction to alcohol. SOBER...AND STAYING THAT WAY will show you how to get away forever from the shame-based sobriety programmes, and how to work towards integrating nearly 4 decades of well-established research with information that is now available to you and to those you love for the treatment of the disease of alcoholism.
