review of book KILL THE CRAVING,
By A Customer
This review is from: Kill the Craving: How to Control Your Impulse to Use Drugs and Alcohol (Paperback)
I was shocked at first from not only the title but by the concept that this book is promoting. How real can you get! The book made me think about what I had done not only to myself but to my family. I was amazed by how I reacted to the graphic photos on the website. My pulse rose and I really had a hard time looking at the photos. This procedure has made me think hard and long about my addiction, my problems, my current state of life and hopefully with all pieces that fall into play, my recovery.

Kill the Craving review,
By A Customer
This review is from: Kill the Craving: How to Control Your Impulse to Use Drugs and Alcohol (Paperback)
I was intrigued by the name so I bought it. I work in the CD field and am alwaya interested in a more eclectic ways to keep my clients clean. This seems to fit what my clients are looking for. It is more of a realistic outlook to a very hard field to work in. The book and espeically the ERP makes the person look at their behaviors behind why they have a problem. It then gives the person alternative methods or tools to cope with feelings and thoughts that may giver them a reason to drink or drug. I am pleased with the book and will definately give a copy to my clients. Nice job!!!

Kill the Craving,
By A Customer
This review is from: Kill the Craving: How to Control Your Impulse to Use Drugs and Alcohol (Paperback)
I bought this book last week and found it fantastic. I have a addiction for about 5 years now and I am still struggling to find the right tool to help me. Reading this book and seeing the ERP photos made me think exactly how hard it can be. The book made me see that I need to encompass ALL aspects of this disease in order to recover. It made me ponder when I heard the title and then to see the photos, it send me over the edge. The concept is straight on and best of all I need the reality the book represents. Thank you for the chance to beat my cravings. If you have any more information please make it available. I can't wait to see the ERP website. Keep up the good work.....

I had to write and tell you that I bought the book and found it very provactive. As a substance abuse counselor, the book was right on the money. It talks about the reality of the addiction and makes clients look at how their drug use encircles all aspects of their lives. Nice job! I reccommend this book to anyone working in the field who has an open mind to change. ... Thanks You;

Book Review,
By A Customer
This review is from: Kill the Craving: How to Control Your Impulse to Use Drugs and Alcohol (Paperback)
This book was intense. I heard about it from a friend so I bought it. The idea was rightv on, the exercises so real, but the pictues and session, WOW!!!. It seems very intense but after reading more and doing more, I realized just how real ERP is. I like the idea of choices along with the concept of not being dictated by the addiction, but moreso giving the person power over their addiction. Nice concept. Thanks again for the ideas and help. I highly reccommend this book to anyone with a addiction.

review of Kill the Craving,
By A Customer
This review is from: Kill the Craving: How to Control Your Impulse to Use Drugs and Alcohol (Paperback)
I saw your book in the bookstore a few days ago. I did not buy it right away because after reading it in the store I thought it was not for me due to my recent arrival back into AA. Your approach is radicle but after a few days I thought about it and decided to buy this book. I have been battling this disease for years now and I decided I had to give it another chance. I will apply all the tools I could find because after many attempts to stay clean, I kept returning back to the bottle. I am optimistic about this attempt to stay clean because I do like the realtity of this concept. Even though it is not oriented on a twelve-step approach it does allow the freedom for me to incoropate my current tools and enhance them with the exercises and more importantly ERP. Thank you and keep the information coming.

This book was great. The concept is so realistic and simple but the actual sessions seem unbelievable. I would love to experience them myself. If you have any trainings. let me know, I want to tell my therapist about ERP.Thanks,
