If you like the ideas and info on this site, you should check out the book I co-authored, The Freedom Model for Addictions: Escape the Treatment and Recovery Trap. It will help you to:

Understand substance use problems (aka addiction”) in a different way.

Understand alcohol and other drugs in a way that allows you to happily choose to quit them or use them less.

Understand and build confidence in your own abilities, which translates into empowerment to change.

The Freedom Model book can be found on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Play, and The Freedom Model official website.

If you want more personalized help you can also learn to apply The Freedom Model to solving your substance use problem with an instructor at The Freedom Model Retreat, or online via videoconference with me.

The Freedom Model is not a treatment. It approaches substance use problems in a radically different way – without pathologizing or diagnosing. Instead it offers the facts and common sense to bring your problem back into the realm of choice – instead of treating a fictitious disease.
