Addict in the Family: Support Through Loss, Hope, and Recovery

"Addict in the Family (second edition) is a book about the pain of addiction, but more importantly it is a book of comfort, understanding, and hope for anyone struggling with a loved one's addiction. As the compelling personal stories reveal, family members do not cause their loved one's addiction-nor can they control or cure it. What family members can do is find support, set boundaries, detach with love, and eventually discover how to enjoy life more fully. This book helps them do just that-whether the loved one achieves recovery or not"--
