I would just like to let everyone know how important it is to read Sharon K Jackson's book "Who's Watching Your Drink?" After reading the book myself I related to a couple of times when I was victimized by the GHB drug. It is very scary and I felt I needed to educate myself and all my friends and family about the awareness of this drug. It can happen to ANYONE! Men, Women and Children. This book has been a blessing from God to open my eyes and many others and how to stay safe when going anywhere. Please take the time to read this book, it is very beneficial.
Great job to Sharon K. Jackson and her courage to write about what happened to her. Awesome Book!!!! And the coasters are the best idea ever to make sure your drink has not been spiked!

Author Sharon Jackson has written a powerful and honest book about her experience of being drugged and raped--repeatedly. I admire her courage in sharing this story--and explaining how it took her ten years to retrieve the memory of these events. Against many odds, she puts the pieces of her flashbacks together until she discovers the awful truth. Sharon is a strong woman and advocate of drug-rape avoidance and survival. She offers support and information that was not available when she needed it most. "Who's Watching Your Drink?" can be used as both an educational tool and as a survival tool.

Sharon Jackson's 'Who's Watching Your Drink?' is not an easy read, but it is a 'must'read. You will be stunned, outraged, angry and then thankful that Sharon was courageous enough to tell her story so that others could be warned of the increasing dangers of date rape drugs in our society. Mandatory reading if you are a parent! The drug coaster to test your drink that comes with the book and can be re-ordered is a stroke of genius! I now make the coasters available and emphasize date rape drugs at the monthly Reality Tour Drug Prevention program I direct in Butler, PA. This book will change lives and save lives! Give the book to students going off to college. I only wish the circumstances endured by Sharon were extremely rare. Her tools for recovery are just as remarkable as her willingness to suffer the sharing necessary to write the book.
Thanks Sharon!

Sharon's book is wonderful! Once I began reading, I could not put it down! All of the different emotions I had while reading this book was unreal. I felt sadness, anxiety, tension and most of all compassion for Sharon. This book is a must for all adult readers! Thank you Sharon for having the courage to tell your story to people like myself!

What a great book! I could not put it down and this wonderful author even provides a date rape coaster in each book for others to protect themselves and promote awareness. BRAVO!!

Sharon did a wonderful job of telling her amazing story. I give her all of the credit in the world for coming forward with such personal information. I think that all women in the world should read this book, no matter their age,even if they dont drink alcohol, just to be aware of the danger out there. Thank you Sharon to opening my eyes to the dangers of "drink spiking".

This book is a MUST READ for GHB drug induced rape victims as well as for their families. Once I began reading, I couldn't put it down. "Who's Watching Your Drink?" is a gift for anyone who knows someone or has experienced first hand the pain, confusion and guilt associated with drug-induced rape. The author's personal account of her journey through the process of remembering the horror are carefully detailed with a message of hope for others. Through personal pictures and her own experience, the author reaches out to others to say; victims of these assaults don't have to live in shame and CAN make a difference for others. I highly recommend it to others!

Once I began reading the book, I couldn't put it down. It is more than just an ordinary book to read. It is a true life story that really happened. It made me realize that it could happen to anyone, including myself. I admire Sharon for having the courage to bare her soul to the world by writing this book. While reading I tried to imagine what it was like and simply couldn't get to that point. It was too difficult to even imagine some of the things she shared in the story.

I would encourage everyone to read this book. Mothers should read it and pass it on to their daughters.

Hats off to you Sharon for sharing this experience with me and the rest of the world!

I am a male and was totally captivated and amazed at what we do to each other. Sharon is one of the most courageous women in the world to share this incredible story.

It is remarkable how our minds work and how much Sharon was able to recall after so many years. She includes a free coaster with the book so that your loved ones don't go through what Sharon did.

Sharon, you are deserving of the greatest rewards that come your way for caring enough to share your story with others. I hope your foundation takes off in great multitude for men and women alike. I have an 8 year old daughter and when she gets older, she WILL have one of your marvelous coasters to protect her from what you went through.

What an incredible story and tremendous lesson of forgiveness and determination! Amazing author and an amazing story!

This is a great book to read whether you are male or female. If you have daughters, be prepared to be very angry and extra protective!

Hello
Like many of you, I love to read. I often get lost in books for hours and dream of one day writing one of my own. I was online one day looking for volunteer opportunities in rape crisis centers, shelters, etc. and I stumbled across www.watchyourdrink.com. I read the details on the website about the book, "Who's Watching Your Drink?" and immediately sought contact with the author. When I received the book a few days later after having asked her to send me a copy, I read it in one sitting. I was suprised, upset, crying, laughing - it was a mix of emotions because I could relate. When I was 15 I was date raped and that person had used GHB. To this day I still don't know everything that happened. It was comforting to know, though, that his woman was dedicating her time, money - life - into spreading awareness of these horrible occurrences. I would strongly suggest that every person buy this book. Statistics show that somewhere (now, don't quote me on this) around 1 out of every 4 women are sexually assaulted - before the age of 18! If you are one of the fortunate ones you haven't experienced this terrible assault, chances are you probably know someone who has. This book contains information on date rape drugs as well as the author's horrific experience. You will be shocked to see just how easily men and women fall into others' traps when they accept a beverage they themselves did not pour, or if they consume a drink they temporarily left unattended. Ms. Jackson wrote this book to educate others. Please check out this book. It helped ME to know I wasn't alone, and it also educated me. Hopefully, it could do the same for you.
