: Shaking the Family Tree by DALLAS01

Warning: The author has noted that this contains the highest level of language.
This book is dedicated to anyone out there who thinks that they may be suffering from alcohol or drug addiction. Be it huffed, puffed, snorted, injected, popped or ingested. It is a thief that will take away all of your hopes, your dreams, and perhaps, even your life. Your friends, family, and all of your relationships will suffer, often in silence, as they ride that elevator down with you, to your bottom.
Our stories may not be exactly alike. Our drinking and using patterns may vary. But the most damaging thread that weaves all of our fabric into a shared tapestry is a three syllable word: Denial. It is the blindfold that we wear to our own execution.

Earned A Seal Of Quality

Author Notes
I will be choosing excerpts from shaking the Family Tree. It is a personal memoir/poetry offering that looks at the genetic predisposition for addiction. It follows my personal journey from addiction to recovery and was written for those who can relate, and those who may be questioning their own, or a loved one's, circumstances.
