About the Book
Young, Sober & Free sets forth practically and cogently in disarming, perhaps even irreverent fashion at times, the harsh truth about mind-affecting chemicals and young people. Shelly Marshall and her young collaborators relate the personal experiences of those who have lived through addiction. By sharing experiences, strengths, and hopes, those youths who will suffer from the addiction to alcohol and related drugs may begin to find a way to sobriety and freedom.
The work also furnishes a clear picture of the primary tools of recoverythe Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. The Twelve Steps are a group of principles, spiritual in their nature, which, if practiced as a way of life, can expel the obsession to drink and enable the sufferer to become happily and usefully whole.
All authorities involved in the treatment of alcoholism recognize that regardless of whatever therapeutic approaches may be necessary in individual cases, unless they serve as a bridge to A.A., they are unlikely to be effective over a long period of time. Regardless of what anyone may think of the spiritual program of recovery of A.A., over one million recovering alcoholics can testify to a very practical truth: it works. No other method, technique or program comes close to its success.
