Written by the Amazon #1 Bestselling author Linville M. Meadows, M.D., Recovery from Addiction explains the techniques they learned and secrets and lessons that helped them recover from their addiction to drugs and alcohol.
“This outstanding guide with cogent insights into the nightmarish world of addiction and recovery is a must-read for anyone who thinks he has a problem with addiction.” Prairies Review.
Recovery from Addiction was written for those who wonder if they have a problem with addiction, as well as their families and friends. It is a guide for all who would understand the disease and its treatment.
Recovery from Addiction will help you answer these questions and more.
How do I know if I am an addict?
How do I overcome the intensive and indescribable craving that sweeps over me like a hurricane and will not be denied? What drives my disease?
What are my character defects that fuel my addiction?
“If there is any book you plan to read about addiction this year, it should be this one as it will be a classic for anyone wanting to understand the mind of addicted physicians (and others) and what it takes to recover.” Ralph Snyderman, Chancellor Emeritus, Duke University.
Recovery from Addiction is not simply a didactic guide, but also a memoir of a group of physicians who underwent this pathway to recovery. Each came into rehab with their own misconceptions and fears. It is a rare glimpse into a side of medicine few ever see. Even if you have tried and failed in the past, here you may still find the answers you need to lead a sober life.
“I woke up on my 49th birthday and realized that I was addicted to drugs and alcohol and that my life was spinning wildly out of control. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t stop. Some days I wanted passionately to quit and some days I just didn't care. I had reached a point where I could no longer use and live. It was either quit or die, and then something happened. I found recovery."
Dr. Meadows is an Honors graduate of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and studied at Duke University. He later held faculty positions at both institutions. He was recognized internationally for his work in cancer research, receiving both grants and awards; he authored numerous scientific articles. He was designated a Clinical Investigator of the National Cancer Institute.
His recovery from addiction to drugs and alcohol began May 7, 1997. Since then, he has counseled a large number of addicts and alcoholics striving to get clean and sober. His observations and study over the last 20+ years form the basis for “Recovery from Addiction, The Way Doctors Do It.”He and his wife live on a hobby farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. In the barnyard, you will find 2 sheep, 3 alpacas, 1 donkey, and numerous birds including turkeys, ducks, geese, and a bunch of chickens. An organic garden sits nearby. He is an avid photographer and plays bluegrass guitar.
