About this title

Synopsis

<b>**As Featured on The Dr. Oz Show in Special Addiction Episode with Steven Tyler**</b><br>The disease of addiction affects 1 out of 10 people in the United States, and is a devastating&#8212;often, fatal&#8212;illness. Now, from the physician director of the renowned Betty Ford Center, comes a step-by-step plan with a realistic "one-day-at-a-time" approach to a disease that so often seems insurmountable. With a focus on reclaiming the power that comes from a life free of dependency, <i>Being Sober </i>walks readers through the many phases of addiction and recovery without judgment or the overly "cultish" language of traditional 12-step plans.<br><br>It also addresses the latest face of this disease: the "highly functioning" addict, or someone who is still able to achieve personal and professional success even as they battle a drug or alcohol problem. Dr. Haroutunian tackles this provocative issue head-on, offering new insight into why you don't have to "bottom out" to get help. Dr. Haroutunian is himself a recovering alcoholic and knows firsthand the challenges of sobriety. His background and expertise in the field of alcohol and drug treatment give him a powerful edge and perspective that is unparalleled in his field.<br><br>Using clear, straightforward language, <i>Being Sober </i>offers a proven path toward an emotional sobriety and a rewarding new life based on gratitude, dignity, and self-respect. <br>Including a Foreword written by Steven Tyler.
