Book: Every Silver Lining Has a Cloud - Relapse and the Symptoms of Sobriety by Scott Stevens

Scott Stevens

There are hundreds of alcoholism/recovery books from authors with stellar credentials. Few of them have had to eat their own cooking. This book speaks to alcoholics in recovery and their families about relapse not just as a journalist and researcher would, but as someone who has been there. It is personal, well-researched with more than 70 works cited, and reader-friendly. Nine of ten alcoholics who reach sobriety relapse AT LEAST once. This book gets at the "why" without being dry.

New research is revealed... Old theories reinforced or debunked.

One amazon-verified reader, among numerous 5/5 star customer reviews remarked: "Been in recovery for 23 years and this is the best book I've read. He tells it like it is and he is right on about relapse. Everyone with a personal interest or dealing with alcoholism should read this. Loved it."

If you or someone you know is struggling, I wrote this for you and your family. Sobriety is supposed to be the "Silver Lining" to the dark cloud of alcoholism. But that silver lining has a cloud all its own: Relapse.
