Sarina Wheatman Libri

    Attingendo a una carriera trentennale come terapeuta delle dipendenze nel Regno Unito, in Olanda e a Jersey, questa autrice porta una vasta esperienza pratica nella sua scrittura. Avendo raggiunto lei stessa una prolungata sobrietà attraverso i metodi che sostiene, mira a 'cambiare le percezioni un libro alla volta'. Il suo lavoro nasce da un profondo stupore per quanto poco venga compresa la dipendenza, in particolare lo stigma sociale che impedisce alle persone di cercare aiuto. Si impegna a contribuire a modificare le sinistre statistiche di morte correlate alla dipendenza, considerandola una catastrofe per la salute mentale che necessita di un cambio di immagine.

    • Twisted Wires

      Twisted Wires refers to the crazy mixed up world of addiction. Twisted thinking and behaviour and attitudes abound about this subject. Surely in this day and age we could have a more cohesive attitude about it all? If this were to happen, maybe, just maybe we could have a better way of treating the problem, or detecting it before it became a problem. You have to agree the statistics about this disease are devastating, to live with it or to love someone who has it is the most perplexing thing ever. Addicts are the modern day lepers of society. Shunned, despised and most definitely misunderstood.
