Showing results for "Frank" in Addiction & Recovery

This is a true story. A transparent story of the life of a young man in America, who, like many of our lost youth, found his way into the drug culture. This story is an autopsy into the mind, heart, and soul of an addict. It begins at childhood and takes us through the thoughts, turmoil, and inner conflicts of a person lost in the undercurrent of addiction, and ends in a climax of self-discovery and realization. It is a gripping tale of a suburban youth and his journey through the streets of Baltimore, institutions, prisons, addiction, and worst of all, his own mind.

Are you ready to break free from the chains of alcoholism and embark on a life of sobriety, health, and happiness? In this transformative book, you will find the support, guidance, and practical strategies needed to overcome alcohol addiction and reclaim your life.

Are you tired of being trapped in the vicious cycle of smoking? Do you long for a life free from the harmful effects of nicotine addiction? Quit Smoking Now!!! is your ultimate guide to reclaiming your health, regaining control, and embracing a vibrant, smoke-free future.

What really stuck in my mind was that we, smokers, who want to or are trying to quit tobacco, already know and are aware of all these negative statistics and information. We have been hearing it for years via warnings on packaging, magazine ads, and TV programs specifically designed to show us pictures of blackened smokers’ lungs beside healthy, pink non-smokers’ lungs. But inside, I felt that there was a greater need that begged to be filled. People find all the stats and facts unhelpful because what they are really looking for, is someone or something to show them the way.

This is the compilation of all five booklets written by Robert C. Hickle, written between 1976 to 1980. He reflects on his 40-plus years of experience counseling alcoholics, addicts, and their families; on the profession of addiction counseling, and on societal attitudes about alcoholism and addiction in general. Each booklet is divided into short chapters with titles such as "Alcoholic Lie a Lot" and "Sober and in Trouble" - all in a jargon-free, plain-speaking, down-to-earth style that reflects Bob's statement "I write like I talk."

Pressing Forward is a Bible-based addiction recovery system that can be implemented by individuals, churches, and small groups in order to lead addicts to true liberation. Trent Childers, a gospel preacher and addiction advocate, divides Pressing Forward into three concise sections that defines addiction, offers biblical counsel about overcoming addiction, and leads to a life of faithfulness to Jesus. Each section is motivating and positive, encouraging those who are slaves of addiction to trust in the Lord who can provide eternal relief.

Do you want to walk up to a craps table like a boss… and walk out with pockets full of chips?

Jeder Mensch kennt das manchmal unstillbare Verlangen danach, einen bestimmten Kauf unbedingt tätigen zu wollen, obwohl dieser eigentlich nicht notwendig oder sogar nützlich ist. Daran ist im Grunde genommen auch überhaupt nichts auszusetzen, doch wenn dieser Zustand zur Gewohnheit wird, kann es gefährlich werden. In meinem Hörbuch kläre ich Sie darüber auf, was eine Kauf- bzw. Konsumsucht ausmacht und worin der Unterschied zu einem normalen Konsum von Lebensgütern besteht.

Bob presents what he has learned from alcoholics, addicts, and their families over his 40-plus-year career. Straight talk, jargon-free, and down-to-earth are the hallmarks of his writing style as he tries to flesh out the complicated problems of alcoholism and addiction into practical, everyday terms and concepts any alcoholic, addict, their family, and counseling professional can use to supplement their path to recovery.

Recovery from Alcoholism & Addiction, Volume 1 is a compilation of the first three of five book written by Robert C. Hickle, MA, between 1976 and 1980. Drawing on 40 years of experience where he developed employee assistance programs in both the railroad and manufacturing industries. Counseling hundreds of alcoholics and addicts, Bob developed his own way of seeing the alcoholic/addict, their families, the addictions profession, and society’s view of alcohol.

The final booklet in the series of five by Robert Hickle. His theme throughout all five works has been to make sure the means, the tools, and the attitudes needed to have a healthy and happy recovery are available and understandable in a down-to-earth, plain-speaking, jargon-free manner. Throughout all of Bob's writings, his care, concern, and insight are clear. With this as the final booklet he wrote, you'll find the remaining four at Amazon. It is our hope you will purchase all of them and write a review for each.

Drawing on 40 years of experience where he developed employee assistance programs (in both the railroad and manufacturing industries), counseling hundreds of alcoholics and addicts, Bob developed his own way of seeing the alcoholic/addict, their families, the addictions profession, and society’s view of alcohol. This booklet contains his words of wisdom in short chapters and with pithy titles like “Dealing with the Tensions of Sobriety” and “Sober and in Trouble”, as he relates his observations, experiences, and perspectives on working mostly with alcoholics.

In this second part of a five book series, the author recounts in his down-to-earth, jargon-free manner what he learned from alcoholics about alcoholism. With chapter titles like "A Word to the Professionals" and "When You're Ready, You're Ready" and "Quality Sobriety", he continues to explain what he has learned - an effort to help us all to understand the alcoholic/addict and their family and loved ones.

The author continues his dual quest of better understanding the alcoholic and alcoholism. Again with his standout chapter titles, you'll hear: "Spiritual Insight or Despair?", "Comes The Dawn", and "Dry For 15 Years, Happy For Three Months." Listen to what he has learned, how precious recovery and sobriety is, and how that motivates the recovering person to spread the word about the price they paid to get to where they are with their recovery.

Sobriety isn't just not drinking or using. Rather, it is a number of pieces that come together that make sense, creating a coherent whole which we can call life. In this audiobook, Hickle offers such pieces to consider as: "The Professionals See Them First", "I Never Got Anybody Drunk", and so much more! Like his other works, this audiobook is in Hickle's straight-forward, plain-speaking, down-to-earth, jargon-free style. Listen to enjoy, while learning at the same time.
