Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Addiction Affliction: A Non-User's Handbook for Healing gives voice to those who love someone with addiction-and are quietly consumed by it.While most addiction narratives focus on the person using, this book turns its attention to the partners, parents, and loved ones who absorb the emotional, financial, and psychological fallout. Through clear-eyed analysis and deeply realistic composite examples, Addiction Affliction explores how addiction erodes reality, normalizes deceit, manufactures codependency, and quietly transfers responsibility to the people who stay.This is not a book about blame. It does not deny addiction as a disease. Instead, it examines how the language of disease is often misused to negotiate boundaries, excuse harm, and silence those living beside addiction. With honesty and restraint, George Markwardt dismantles the myths that keep non-users trapped in cycles of hope, guilt, and self-erasure.Written for those who have waited, endured, and sacrificed, Addiction Affliction offers validation without cruelty-and clarity without illusion. It affirms a truth rarely spoken aloud: loving someone with addiction does not require losing yourself.…
