The Substance Abuse & Recovery Workbook contains self-assessments, exploratory activities, reflective journaling exercises and educational handouts to help participants discover their habitual and ineffective methods of managing substance abuse, and to explore new ways for bringing about healing. The book contains five sections that help individuals: determine the level of their addiction, examine personality traits that predispose them to various addictions, measure codependency characteristics, understand relapse warning signs, and identify excuses they may be using to continue their abuse of substances.
