Produktbeschreibung
The author of this book is a person who has spent 15 years sober and brings a deeply personal perspective to the topic of addiction. Having struggled with substance use in the past, she has not only experienced the physical and emotional toll of addiction firsthand, but also the stigmatization that often accompanies it. Her journey to recovery has been marked by challenges of overcoming societal judgment, misunderstandings, and the dehumanizing attitudes that can impede healing. Through this book, the author aims to shed light on the harsh realities of addiction, advocate for a more compassionate and understanding approach to those affected, and to share the hope that recovery is possible. The author's perspective is further shaped by the painful experience of watching her own son struggle with a twenty plus year addiction-a son who has had numerous overdoses and is facing numerous criminal charges instead of receiving the help he desperately needs. This deeply personal connection to the addiction crisis drives the author's mission to shift society's focus from punishment to treatment and support, believing that everyone, including her son, deserves a chance at recovery and a life free from stigma. People with substance use disorder face mistreatment, stereotyping, and negative bias from society. The biggest cause of the stigma of addiction is the lack of knowledge of the disease, ignorance and misinformation. We need to STOP the stigma of addiction. They are not junkies, crackheads, they are someone's mother, father, sister, brother, son or daughter or grandchild with a disease.
