Author Rebecca Dolton arrived at her inspiration to write this book by being in a relationship with partner who became an abusive alcoholic In her introductory comments she surveys her own experience with a man who was everything she loved until his alcoholism grew to the point, enabled by his mother, that she realized the need to end the relationship. 'I know my story isn't unique and I know there are people who have suffered much more than I have. I wanted to explain why I was motivated to write this book. I have spent a lot of time with people who have a problem with alcohol, they're not bad people, you're not a bad person, they can change and so can you. I wanted to do something for you to make the process of recovery much easier for you...I want to help you remember how wonderful you are and that you have been led astray from your path by internal and external forces...' Rebecca is a psychology oriented speaker and writer and has composed one of the most direct and immediately accessible books on recovery for alcoholics - and a superb manual for partners, family and friends of alcoholics to understand that process, enabling them to be supportive because they are informed. Her methods are based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Meaning-Centered Therapy (MCT) or Logotherapy. Incorporating these methods supports her focus on meaningful ACTion. As she states, 'Reading this book alone won't yield any result; this is a call to action. Rewiring your brain takes work, discipline, motivation, and forgiveness, ' and with that supportive and realistic approach, Rebecca supplies one fine 'manual' of information and exercises to accomplish recovery. The chapter titles of this book define Rebecca's method, and among them are the following: 'Why stop? Why don't we stop?, From willpower and temptation to acceptance, Addressing the root cause, Replacing pleasure with meaning, and Self-actualization and motivation. The book reads like a conversation, a private coaching session with an expert. It is refreshing to find a book about alcoholism that is both informative and supportive. Rebecca gets down to the basics and leads the alcoholic back into the fulfillment and happiness of sobriety. By Grady Harp, Amazon Customer Quit Drinking: Understanding alcoholism, removing the addiction from your life, and believing in your future sober self by Rebecca Dolton is such a well-written book. It not only will help anyone who is struggling with a drinking problem, but addresses many of the societal issues that lead to drinking too much.
