Summary

"Here is a book for those who have 'tried everything' to get their loved ones sober--from scolding and nagging, to begging and bribing, and even detaching--all to no avail. Using this compassionate yet effective approach, spouses, lovers, parents, or children of problem drinkers or drug users can improve the quality of their own lives while making sobriety a more rewarding option for their loved ones than drinking or taking drugs. Based on the scientifically validated CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Training) model, Get Your Loved One Sober provides the guidance and tools you need to recognize how you and your loved one interact and to change those patterns to achieve healthier, happier results"--From publisher description
