Product Description

Synopsis

This workbook alternative to the 12-step programme can help reduce all types of addictive behaviours by approaching them in general rather than separately. It approaches addiction as a bad habit rather than a disease, and emphasizes taking responsibility rather than submitting to a "Higher Power".

5.0 out of 5 stars Will put you back in control of your life, 27 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sex, Drugs, Gambling and Chocolate: Workbook for Overcoming Addictions (Mental Health) (Paperback)
This workbook is loaded with practical suggestions and will appeal to anyone who has unsuccessfully sought to overcome a serious addiction or habit using more traditional (i.e. 12 step) treatment approaches. Horvath, whose credentials are extensive and impeccable, leads you step by step through a rethinking process designed to accomplish goals you may have thought impossible. The workbook approach is straighforward and adaptable to a variety of addictive behaviors (over 100 are identified!--you can add your own). The author's warm good humor and tolerance will support you through the tough times. He is there to hold your hand in the darkness and encourage you when you slip. He gives you full credit for your own accomplishments. It's the closest thing to individual therapy you will find in a bookstore (virtual or otherwise). There are many up-to-date references and a useful reading list. Incidentally, the information presented is not hostile towards, or totally incompatible with other approaches to addiction, but is primarily intended for those who want a scientifically proven, rational approach to behavior change.

1.0 out of 5 stars don't believe, 9 Dec 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sex, Drugs, Gambling and Chocolate: Workbook for Overcoming Addictions (Mental Health) (Paperback)
I don't believethe previous review was written by a 'real' reader - looks like a marketing promotion job to me - how sad that an author is reduced topretending to write independent reviews - get a life please or perhaps read your own book and don't be so addicted to your own ego.
