Drug & Alcohol Use Boot Camp: Addiction Prevention - Steve Hall - Bog

Addiction and Substance Use Disorder. We have all heard the terms, but what are they really? What causes them and how can we avoid them? Do you have a friend or loved one struggling with alcohol or drug use? How can you help someone who is struggling with this? How can you help the family members who have also been affected? The key to prevention and recovery is knowledge and understanding. Do you know what the three natural laws of alcohol and drug use are, and how they impact you? Alcohol and drug use have been identified as a disease, what does that really mean and what is the treatment? We take an in-depth look at these issues so you can make better choices when you are looking to consume alcohol or drugs. Steve has experienced the impact of addiction his entire life (over 50 years). His parents were alcoholics, and he has brothers and a sister who suffered from alcoholism and addiction. Steve also helped foster parent three children who had been abused on multiple levels and helped them recover from this abuse over a four-and-a-half-year period. He has attended hundreds of AA (Alcohol Anonymous), NA (Narcotics Anonymous), Adult Children of Alcoholics meetings, and church-based recovery programs. He has done extensive research on the causes of substance abuse (addiction) and the recovery process.
