Way Too Much Alcohol: Sobriety Doesn't Mean Dehydration. How To Quit Drinking & To Start Your Recovery, (Paperback)

"Life in a glass, noises from outside, rolled eyes on the couch. Trembling hands to change channels on the telly. Giving up on alcohol was as hard as dealing with its consequences."

Charles, a middle-aged alcoholic man, is a palm away from hitting the ground, desperate, depressed and above all, with an insisting morning headache.

The book tells the story of a crude man on his way to recovery, facing the truths of alcoholism, one after another, and how he finds a way out from this shady path.

The main character meets Allan, a therapist who patiently shows him the light, throughout discussions based on his scientific knowledge and good advice about his illness.

Alcohol consumption and dependency causes depression, which ends up feeling like a black hole, a lake of weaknesses, a life failure, a non-returning point... But wait...not all is lost. If, at least, you start recognizing these psychological symptoms and get a professional treatment, you will slowly learn how to set your limits until finding the power of habit, a rule-changer that will transform your daily existence.

Book contents:

• Researched-based information about alcoholism and a full picture of the different and most effective remedies to control alcohol abuse.
• The true story of a crude heavy drinker, written with a touch of dark humor.
• Multimedia sources for you to deepen into your self-recognition and rehab

About the author:

Way too much alcohol is a tale based on the writer's life. Charles is Francis Mitchell's alter ego, a fictional character who gave him the strength to share details of his life with no filters and no other intention than to inspire other people to quit as well.

Francis Mitchell, during his recovery from alcohol, was conquered by a wide list of literature titles, like the book of disquiet, written by Fernando Pessoa under Bernardo Soares heteronym. This was a recommendation from the great counsellor Thomas Bricknell, who appears as Allan in this book. His wife, Ginebra, Annabelle in the novel, was a decisive love support but also a good literature advisor who made him read from Unwifeable: A Memoir by Mandy Stadtmiller, passing from Milan Kundera's Unbearable Lightness of Being, to Thus Spoke Zarathustra from Nietzsche, among many others.

"To save lives and to reduce diseases on a world scale. With the powerful weapon called support."
