Question by jesse: Are there any books about understanding drug addiction?
I’m currently in early recovery from drug addiction but my parents don’t quite understand addiction and i don’t know how to explain it to them. Does anyone know if there’s any good books about it that i can buy for them to help them understand more?

Thank you!

    Narcotics Anonymous
    Just for Today

    and then whatever millions of books u can find at the bookstore. The top three listed can be found at any NA meeting.
    ALSO take them to a meeting. Its a must for the families of recovering addicts. They can also go to ALANON meetings which is a support group for the families of addicts and recovering addicts.

    Good luck to you.

    It’s different for everybody just be yourself and explain it. write it down if you have to.

  • dreamer.rc42 says:

    Yes, there are a lot of good books that break addictions down so that it’s easier for everyone to understand. I can’t recommend any from personal experience but I did use Addictions for Dummies for a class project a few years ago and I found that it laid everything out nicely and was a very easy read. I hope this helps some, good luck.

    I love NA speakers, in fact, it was a hardcore, gutter level addict that convinced me that? my problem was that I am restless, irritable, and discontented with people, places and things. I’m the food addict version of you. And even though I’ve never been in treatment centers (I don’t have an uber wealthy corporate leader or rich entertainer for a father who can pay for binge eating disorder treatment stay), I’ve been in and out of recovery for years. “I take poison and I hope you die.” That’s me.
