Tough Love (Revised Edition): How Parents Can Deal with Drug Abuse Reviews

Review by :

Having a child addicted to alcohol or drugs is one of the most heartbreaking and challenging problems that parents may face. Here, in a revision of her bestselling 1982 book, Neff offers practical, loving and completely updated help to those struggling with that situation. Although the specific 12-step program that Neff stresses does not exist everywhere, parents can adopt the principles she outlines and form support groups with other parents. Central to Neff’s approach is “detachment from the abuser,” which entails allowing the abuser to “bottom out” without “padding the corners” (often called “enabling” in other references). This method, argues Neff, provides one of the few hopes for the abuser and his or her family. It is also terrifying, however, to parents who lack the support and distancing of the tough-love approach. By far the largest part of Neff’s book is devoted to the stories of seven families who have faced the crisis of the addicted child and come through it stronger and more spiritually intact. In short, this book should be required reading for every parent with a child in trouble.

Review by Lyn Chagaris-Taylor:

I bought this book in the 80′s and it did wonders for me! It helped me to get control of “me” again… and I went forward with my son from there.

Network Therapy for Alcohol and Drug Abuse: Effective Office-Based Treatment [VHS]

This informative video shows how a therapist works in treatment partnership with a patient, family, and friends to surmount major obstacles to recovery. The video portrays reenacted therapy sessions using transcripts from actual sessions with a patient—showing how the real process of recovery can begin—and be sustained. Each session with the patient, his family, and friends (all portrayed by actors) is followed by a discussion of salient points with Dr. Galanter. Seasoned with practical advice from Dr. Galanter’s years of experience in the field, the companion booklet provides a concise, indispensable guide to this therapy model. Network therapy is a multimodal approach to rehabilitation in which specific family members and friends are enlisted to provide ongoing support and promote attitude change. Three critical tasks propel the therapy and are illustrated on the video: maintaining abstinence (the prompt achievement of abstinence with relapse prevention), caring for the network (network members are part of the therapist’s team and not subjects of treatment themselves), and securing future behavior (development of a drug-free adaptation). The network complements individual or group therapy and Alcoholics Anonymous. For easy reference, this helpful example of network therapy is accompanied by a table of contents with concepts listed by location on the video. Replete with practical insights and methods, this valuable video and companion booklet will benefit mental health care professionals, addiction specialists, and trainees alike.

Review by bsgoodwin@wwnet.com:

I’ve worked with Jerry Dorsman closely, and I wanted to share with you my personal high regards for Jerry Dorsman and his new book “How to Quit Drugs for Good”. I was fortunate enough to see Jerry apply many of the methods he details in his book with real people in real settings. Jerry is not a one-track thinker and is aware that different strokes work for different folks. The purpose of his book is to highlight the whole spectrum of treatments available for addictions so that the reader can better select a treatment more suitable to their unique needs. It is a comprehensive manual that goes into detail about all drugs, their effects, and effective treatments and therapies available. One would do very well in selecting this book to help themselves or as a manual in helping others in the field of addictions treatment. I found his first book “How to Quit Drinking Without AA” an essential tool in my own counseling experiences. It was so incredibly useful from a concrete treatment perspective that I referenced it in my own treatment plan development. I saw great results, and I stand by that. That’s all I needed to see. Now I recommend all his books, because he cuts right to the chase without all the fluff. When you’re in trouble, you don’t want to waste time. You want to know what to do and how as soon as you can. This book is not the cure, but it’s the best stepping stone to the cure only you can provide. Trust me on this!

Review by T. Campbell:

I’ve read this book twice now. The first time I was still using and the second when I quit. It was a very comprehensive guide and I’m so glad I bought it. Thanks so much for the help Jerry.
