Recovering Books
Recovery Books are very useful for those undergoing rehab. These helpful writings range from traditional recovery books, to quick guides on how to make the most of your rehabilitation experience, to easy-to-read memoirs that help addicts identify with other people and their addictions.
Choosing to enter rehab can be a very difficult decision for many addicts. A lot of times, patients feel stressed, worried or alone in the very early stages of recovery. One of the best things to do in such a situation is for an addict to feel comfortable with himself, and realize that others in the world also share the same goals and interests. Reading a book with pure intentions and advice is a therapeutic way of feeling a sense of hope, courage, and understanding about oneself.
Here, we present you with a list of recovery books, all with the single goal of bringing you a peace of mind and lifting your spirits. If you are interested in inspirational messages, guidelines for a successful recovery, or first-hand accounts by recovering addicts or family of recovering addicts, then this collection of books is exactly what you need to supplement your addiction recovery program.
We take pride in helping addicts find their favorite recovery book, one that best fits them. If you would like to have a book brought to our attention, one that you feel others will also benefit from, then e-mail us and we will be happy to update our list.
We enjoy suggesting books which will help you through your journey to recovery. You can have your very own recovery book, one that will make you say to yourself, "There are many others who have rehabilitated in the past, led happy lives and made it through their darkest hours ... and so can I."
From all of us at My Florida Center for Recovery, LET THE HEALING BEGIN!
