Self-Help
"As a thorough guide to helping substance abusers find help,
this makes a valuable addition to the self-help
shelves."--"Publishers" "Weekly" (starred review) A powerful, groundbreaking book that shows you, in concrete
steps, how to help a loved one stop from engaging in
self-destructive behavior. Is your husband drinking himself
to death? Is your brother losing it all to gambling? Do you
need to get your kid off drugs before it's too late? Or make
your spendthrift sister stop maxing out her credit cards?
Get your best friend out of an abusive relationship? If
you're tired of watching your spouse, child, relative, or
friend go downhill, dragging you with them, "How to Help the
One You Love "will help you turn their lives around. You
don't have to endure behavior that is unhealthy, abusive, or
even deadly. You can break down the great myths around
change--and help them change for good. Many books will tell you that you can't change anyone. They
advise you to not even try. But they ignore the tremendous
power you actually have to change people. If most books
about change are written for the person in trouble, "How to
Help the One You Love "reaches out to the loved ones: people
who know that change is critical and urgent. "How to Help the One You Love is not just a self-help book;
it's a help-you-act book."
