Product Description
by Gail Brenner Nastasia (Author)
Most addiction memoirs end with sobriety. This one begins there.
After years of relapses, Gail Brenner Nastasia was finally clean and ready for the promises of sobriety. Within a few years, everything she thought she ever wanted was hers: a husband, healthy children, and a prestigious legal career. Until she blew it all up. She ended her marriage by becoming involved with an active addict, her finances were in ruins, and she was living in constant chaos.
In Staying Clean Living Dirty, Gail shares her raw journey of discovery as she learns that despite a decade of sobriety, her addictive behaviors hadn't changed-she was still "living dirty." Sobriety alone wasn't enough. Real recovery meant uncovering what she'd been keeping in the dark. The transformation came when she realized her painful past wasn't something to hide-it was preparation for her life's work.
This unflinching memoir offers hope to anyone who knows that living clean isn't always as easy as it sounds.
