Publisher Description: This book is for patients or individuals dealing with the issues of alcoholism and addiction. It starts with a short story that gives a fictional account of the life of the man who discovered alcohol. It provides a new understanding of addiction without the obligatory religious perspective. In fact, it focuses on knowledge and the process needed for "changing one's mind" rather than for merely changing one's actions.You are exposed to the thought process that sees alcohol as a value and show the devastating impact of excessive use on your life and relationships.It is hoped that this approach will assist the reader in also beginning his own journey of understanding about addiction and alcoholism in particular. This document is the Patient's companion document to the Counselor version of this story. In addition to the short story "The World's First Drunk", contains a quiz for the patient. The intent of this set of materials is for the counselor to provide the Patient version to his or her patients and then use his Counselor version to direct an individual or group discussion about what he learned through reading the story. |
