No More Letting Go: The Spirituality of Taking Action Against Alcoholism and Drug Addiction

â€œDetachmentâ€ has been the standard message of most addiction literature for the last twenty years. The conventional wisdom offered to an addictâ€™s loved ones has been to let the addict â€œhit bottomâ€ before intervening. Now intervention specialist Debra Jay challenges this belief and offers a bold new approach to treating addiction that provides a practical and spiritual lifeline to families struggling with alcohol or drug abuse.

In No More Letting Go, Jay argues that the traditional advice of â€œletting goâ€ too often destroys both the addict and the family physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Jay contends that addiction is everybodyâ€™s businessâ€“not just the addictâ€™sâ€“and addiction doesnâ€™t have the right to trump the welfare of a family.

In short, highly accessible chapters written with warmth, understanding, and compassion, Jay weaves together philosophical and religious thought; new science on the brain function of an addict; the physical and psychological impact of addiction on family members; and poignant, real-life family stories.

No More Letting Go is a powerful, informative guide that provides comfort, hope, and practical advice to anyone affected by a family memberâ€™s addiction.
