Finding Sobriety Doris Reynolds

Finding sobriety was a long journey for me. My alcoholism started when I was a teenager. I felt its important to share my story to give a perspective of what its like to live this disease. The misunderstanding of what alcoholism and addiction is; a gap getting bigger in today"s world of "lets just take all drugs away and put these people to work" which is an attitude of death to those in addiction. I wanted to show the progression of the disease. My first book is about living the life of alcoholism and addiction how it progressed in my life, and the consequences. The second book is the long journey to go from the end of my first book and how I finally found recovery. I hope my books inspire talk. Talk about hard things between people. I also want to give an inside look at how hard the fight is to recovery and its not an easy fix. I also have theory of the war on drugs being to kill off addicts the way its been handled which is upsetting.
