SUMMARY
Recognizing that an addiction to 12-step programs can be just as dangerous as an addiction to alcohol or drugs, this book provides techniques to counter the self-defeating beliefs that lead to addiction. It enables those who have gone through Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, and formal 12-step addiction treatments to overcome the self-destructive beliefs and attitudes that these programs promote. Theseinclude the idea that addicts and alcoholics are powerless, the belief that addiction is an incurable disease, the assertion that people who slip inevitably lose control, and the notion that those who reject the 12-step approach are doomed. Devoted to helping individuals indoctrinated in 12-step dogma recognise their destructiveness, this book provides effective psychological techniques to vanquish negative thinking and help individuals regain control of their lives.DeSena, James is the author of 'Overcoming Your Alcohol, Drug and Recovery Habits An Empowering Alternative to Aa and 12-Step Treatment' with ISBN 9781884365294 and ISBN 1884365299.
