Dealing With an Addict

If you are living with the pain of seeing a loved one battle an addiction, your life is already filled with too many questions and not enough answers. You are not alone. Dr. Peter Ferentzy has walked the lonely path of addiction himself, but it was the tragic death of two close friends that inspired him to do his part to save others. His guide, Dealing with an Addict, walks you through the confusing-and often corrupt-world of addiction, treatment, and recovery. Far too often, those seeking help for their loved ones find themselves treated with disrespect by industry "professionals" who are more interested in fees than lasting results. A helpful companion for anyone wanting to help an addicted friend, partner, or offspring, Dealing with an Addict gives you the tools to make effective decisions about when to help, how to help, and above all, how to protect yourself and your loved one from an industry that is often more predatory than helpful.
