Book Reviews of Diary of a Drug Fiend

Book Review: 12 Step Anonymous
Summary: 5 Stars

I would have to rate this book among the best written in the English language. It is captivating, riveting, and deftly portrays two seperate worlds (the world of the occult and the world of drug addiction) with which the greater public is unfamiliar.

Diary of a Drug Fiend is, as is stated very succinctly in the preface, "a true story. It has been rewritten only so far as was necessary to conceal personalities."

I, being a RECOVERED alcohol and cigarette addict, can attest to the workability of this esoteric/exoteric approch to addictions. It is possible to completely reverse an addiction and responsibly handle the substance. I know becouse I tested the theory.

The proposed approch to the problem is a combination of Zen and Taoist meditative techniques, and a thorough recording of your progress in a diary. The individual is encouraged to work with their own body rhythms, and discouraged from ever feeling any guilt. The addiction is the symptom not the actual problem.

Diary of a Drug Fiend takes a very unorthodox approch to a frightening problem.
