Fabulous Falsehoods

Stephen Weigert, a Master's level therapist and insider with over forty years' experience in the field of rehabilitation, candidly reveals the "Fabulous Falsehoods" that created America's drug addiction epidemic, leaving an ineffective, often disingenuous treatment/support network to "fix it". Critically, he provides a convincing "playbook" of innovative strategies--What actually WORKS for achieving lasting recovery from addiction. Why, in truth, there is no known "disease" that CAUSES people people to use drugs or drink excessively. How 1) the "science" of addiction is actually imprecise and has remained in its "infancy" for decades, and how the current treatment for pain is essentially misguided. And when "12-Step" fellowships mislead and confuse attendees along their paths toward recovery.Stephen Weigert's career as a rehab counselor, psychotherapist, and life/success coach to about ten thousand individuals has provided him with a unique perspective on accomplishment and on recovering from setbacks. His earlier book, "Who Wins and Why," offers surprising keys to WIN in most any life pursuit.
