A must read!!!

This book is great for anyone who wants to learn more about the addict in yourself or in your life. I liked it because shes been through the process in real life. Most people I encounter say they're an expert in addiction but have never been through the struggle. Not to sound rude in any way but she dumbed it down so the regular everyday person can understand lol

The tipping point for me

Thank you for writing this book, Dr Nicole! Your clear language of what exactly my brain was going through by continuing to drink has been a game changer for me. It helped me make the decision to find a local AA group and I am re-listening to your book while on the road to recovery. This changed my life — for the better!

Great book for any addict

Love her style. This book helps us understand the problem and the solution in a very digestible approach.

Eye-opening explanation of addiction.

Dr. Nicole Labor has a unique way of explaining what is going on in the brain for addicted persons. Her explanation has really helped to educate me to understand what my loved one is going through in terms of addiction, but also the reality of the struggles with rehab and recovery. I can’t even put into words how much this book has helped me with my own journey and dealing with my loved ones addiction. And give me peace and understanding that I never thought I would have. I highly recommend this book not only for anyone who is personally dealing with addiction, but for family members or loved ones that have someone in their life that is struggling with addiction. Thank you, Dr. Labor for taking the time to share your story and your insight and knowledge. You have truly made an indelible mark on my life.

A great quick review on addiction

Awesome read (or listen!). Easy to listen to. She did a good job of breaking down the brain and addiction in an easy to remember format. I will use this to also talk to my patients about it
