I used to love to escape reality and numb myself to the pain of the moment.  It took me a few years to figure out that it was actually making things worse and creating more pain.  It's ok to run away for a while, but now I know that there are better options. When I was struggling with my gambling addiction I couldn't find a book on what I wanted to read.  I wanted help out of my mess.  I needed something that wasn't too clinical and that talked about more than the author's story of addiction.  Group meetings didn't work for me.  I stumbled around hoping to feel better somehow.  After varied attempts at recovery I finally figured out the path that worked for me.  Numb No More: Simple Solutions to Acheive Freedom From Habits and Addictions is my journey with addiction and recovery.  I share the tips that helped me regain my sanity and control over my life and feelings.  I tell you how I got my power back so that you can gain from it as well.  When we see our problems for what they are we are able to take care of them.  Choose to care about yourself and invest your time and money into the brighter future that you deserve...no matter what anyone else told you! Enjoy your success!   If you need additional help along the way JaneCares.com is a great source for help and information.
