How to regain control when alcohol is taking over your life

Statistics show that misuse of alcohol is a very common problem. Using alcohol unwisely can have long-term effects on your health, career and family life. This self-help book helps you take a healthier approach to drinking.

Using methods based on real clinical practice and proven cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques, this revised and updated edition shows you how to regain control of your alcohol consumption.

You will learn:
· How to identify the tell-tale signs of alcohol misuse
· The relationship between drinking, anxiety and depression
· How to help if you are anxious about a friend or family member

This indispensable guide forms a complete self-help programme, including diaries and record sheets, and advice on how to enlist the support of those around you.
