Don't Laugh Over the Abyss. Notes of a Narcologist

"I can always quit," "Women's alcoholism is incurable," "Beer is not alcohol." There are many misconceptions associated with addictions. This book is written to dispel illusions. Who will get sick and who will endure? Neither race, eye color, religion, nor... wealth can protect you from anything. The book will answer the most important questions: • How does the mechanism of addiction work? • Why is it so easy to get hooked and so difficult to free oneself from harmful dependencies? • What role do relatives play? Upbringing? Education? Genetics? • What does it lead to when we indulge our weaknesses and vices? When we talk about addictions, understanding the problem is very important, realizing that you cannot reset the history, and having a strong motivation for prolonged sobriety. The book will help achieve these three key stages of success and serve as an important tool for rethinking and working on recovery.
