The Alcoholism and Addiction Cure: My Life Changed Forever
"I am a father of 3 daughters. My Fiance has 3 children of her own that I also raise. I was addicted to alcohol and prescription drugs. I thought I was an alcoholic at a minimum! After leaving a rehab center, I was depressed, scared about re-lapse, and ashamed to carry the disease I was labeled with. I had resolved to a life of self-affirming I was an addict on a daily basis not only in the mirror but in the rooms of AA and NA. I will not go on and on with my ""sad stories"" along my journey. They are ALL similar. Full of sorrow, broken promises, and pain.
I stood in the self help section of a Barnes and Noble with the intention of finding a book on alcoholism, AA, or anything to dull the pain inside created for me by other people, telling me I was incurable. I picked up ""The Alcoholism and Addiction Cure"", laughed at the title, and then read the back cover. In that moment, my life changed forever. I caught a glimpse of ""what if"" and of hope. I reluctantly bought the book with the intention of finding out how I could prove Mr. Prentiss dead wrong.
I am not a big book reader. I could NOT put this book down. I consumed it. I saw you have thousands of ""thank you"" letters and emails from people from across the country. I'm sure mine will be no different. But I cannot refrain letting you know MY thank you. I consider myself a successful, intelligent man. So much so that I know I would have re-lapsed eventually. That book took me from my personal hell to a perfectly cured, healthy, happy whole complete person. I have NO cravings, I have no thoughts of using, I have no DOUBT that this book saved my life. My personal philosophy on my life has completely changed and I owe it all to Chris, Pax, and everyone involved with the dedication and determination to make THE TRUTH known to anyone who wants to hear it. My family thanks you, I thank you and my God Bless you, your families, those who have been cured and most importantly, those still searching for it.
I ordered 2 of your books. I cried when I listened to your video on your web site. My older sister has been drinking and using drugs for 40 years and our family has paid a huge price for all this pain. I started asking my Mom to find the underlying cause and to work on that when I was about 12. I can't wait to read this book and to give one to my sister. HOPE is an amazing thing!
I just got this book a week ago and have already completed my first reading. In my 35 years of reading books of this caliber (i.e. self direction, motivation, self help), I have never found one that covers every aspect of an issue. In addition after 34 years of dependence in one way or another this is the only material that even came close to understanding addiction and helping to put an end to it. Thank you Chris.
