Contrary to what other programs may have led you to believe, you are more than a "client" to be treated or labeled with a disease. You have choices, motivation and free will. Your future depends, not on the theories and opinions of counselors and doctors, but on that inner desire you have to be more than you are now.
You've tried treatment & endless meetings ..... And realize, "That's just not me!"
"Someone struggling with drug addiction or alcohol addiction will continue to use until he or she is convinced that they can successfully live life without the use of alcohol or drugs. This can come at any time. There is no “bottom”. It is relative. Drug and alcohol use has more to do with why people think they can’t quit, than why people continue to use. In other words, I am not going to quit until I think I can." ~ excerpt from "The Forgotten Five Steps"
This workbook is based on success. If you have tried traditional treatment and still don't understand why you can't stop alcohol or drugs, or if you are attempting to quit for the first time, this workbook can help.
It does not have to cost thousands of dollars and years of therapy to change your life! This workbook is empowering for both the person who struggles with an addiction and those who try to help.
This is not an AA, 12-step approach. AA is a great support network and has helped many, but not everyone is the same. We all have individual thoughts, dreams and goals with diferent ways of getting to them.
I feel that eliminating options to "recovery" by saying only AA can work, discourages many and can often be detrimental for those who disagree with the main stream disease model approach.
There is hope! There are many who have found the secret to ridding themselves of their addiction forever.I have often heard that if someone struggling with alcohol or drugs does not agree with AA or their therapist that they must be "in denial", "resistant to therapy" or "not following the program" and will soon relapse. I disagree strongly!
You do not have to be miserable, attend meetings for the rest of your life, or flounder around with an endless struggle against addiction! You already have the answer and ability to change. All that is needed is a willingness and desire for change!
My purpose in creating the workbook is to present another approach to addiction that is choice based and not disease based. It is to share my views, oppinions and experience in what I have learned in the process with the hope that it will encourage others to do the same.
I am not a medical doctor, researcher or scholar, but rather just someone who wanted more. Success in recovery is extremely possible! The ability to "recover" is already within us and this reality should not be forgotten.

$35.00 ***** This workbook was developed as an AA or NA alternative.
It is for those who struggle with alcohol addiction or drug addiction and just can't find the meaning and answers they seek in AA, NA or current treatment programs.
It is to empower the friends and families of those with a drug addiction or alcohol addiction, and help them understand what they can do to help.
It views drug and alcohol addiction as a choice, not a disease.
Through the "Forgotten Five Steps" workbook it presents motivational and practical tools for "recovery" that pull upon your own strengths.
This approach will not require years of expensive therapy, endless meetings and defining yourself as an alcoholic or addict.
...I must emphasize that I believe in the value of each person, and like myself, each must come to terms with who they are, what they desire, and their own way of finding it.
AA and treatment can be beneficial in changing one's life from alcohol addiction or drugs. However, I have met many alcohol or drug users who just couldn't make it work. They believed in a different philosophy or life course. They wanted more than what was offered. I do not judge others for their beliefs and passions for we all dance to a different tune.
You are not a failure because you did not succeed in previous attempts at "sobriety". Look deeper. Find your passion. Raise your standards and begin to believe again...... HOPE!
If you have tried to quit alcohol or drugs, and just can't find that peace and happiness through traditional programs, read on. Open your mind and heart to what is possible and know that you are not alone. There are others who struggled also, but found a way to live again.
My purpose here is to share my views, opinions and what I have learned in the process, with the hope that it will encourage others to do the same. The question I often ask myself is "What statement do I want to give to the world?" Well, here are some, of many, that myself and others have deemed important enough to share.......Timothy Welch, PCC, NCC, MAC Newark, Ohio Drug & Alcohol Addiction Recovery Alternative I can also email your copy to you if you are unsure about the download process or don't have the above capabilities.
