Sarina Wheatman Knihy

    Tridsaťročná kariéra terapeutky závislostí v liečebných zariadeniach v Spojenom kráľovstve, Holandsku a na Jersey inšpirovala autorku k písaniu. Vďaka vlastnej skúsenosti s dlhším obdobím triezvosti využíva metódy, ktoré aplikovala v praxi aj vo svojich knihách. Jej cieľom je „meniť vnímanie po jednej knihe“, pretože ju neustále udivuje, ako málo je závislosť pochopená. Autorka dúfa, že svojím dielom prispeje k zmene znepokojujúcich štatistík úmrtí na následky závislosti a pomôže odbúrať stigmu spojenú s touto duševnou chorobou.

    • 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.
