It was during the active addiction of my son that I developed this plan to survive the chaos and distraction that addiction brings to a family. After years of research and experimentation, it is time to share these life saving "tools" so that others can also have some serenity and peace while surrounded by chaos.
It took a lot of sweat and time for the author to develop this plan to get her life back to recover from being addicted to the addicts in her life. Millions of us know the chaos that occurs in the daily lives of those who love addicts and alcoholics. Do we know fear, frustration, anxiety, distraction, depression? These become our lives. Focus? What does that even mean?
The author, who has had addicts in her life, much of her adult life, moved into crisis mode when she discovered that her teenage son was addicted to prescription drugs and street drugs. Hers is a story of discovery and recovery. The plan that worked for her, as she says "to get about 85% of my life back" is a simple plan. This plan is her contribution to hope, peace, and serenity for those who live in the midst of this chaos called addiction.
Excerpt
"My sons are as important to me as anyones' children are to them. I believe that I am closer to them than ever. After working very hard at this transformation and making the choices I have made over the past few years, I know that it has made a marked impact on my family and our relationships to each other. My recovery from addiction to my addict began much earlier than my son's recovery from his addiction to drugs. My hope for everyone is that no matter what the chaos is in your lives at the moment, you are able to control what goes on within you and you can have peace. I read somewhere that there will always be sadness, but misery is a choice. I have come to believe this"
