The final booklet in the series of five by Robert Hickle. His theme throughout all five works has been to make sure the means, the tools, and the attitudes needed to have a healthy and happy recovery are available and understandable in a down-to-earth, plain-speaking, jargon-free manner. Throughout all of Bob's writings, his care, concern, and insight are clear. With this as the final booklet he wrote, you'll find the remaining four at Amazon. It is our hope you will purchase all of them and write a review for each.

Drawing on 40 years of experience where he developed employee assistance programs (in both the railroad and manufacturing industries), counseling hundreds of alcoholics and addicts, Bob developed his own way of seeing the alcoholic/addict, their families, the addictions profession, and society’s view of alcohol. This booklet contains his words of wisdom in short chapters and with pithy titles like “Dealing with the Tensions of Sobriety” and “Sober and in Trouble”, as he relates his observations, experiences, and perspectives on working mostly with alcoholics.

This is the compilation of all five booklets written by Robert C. Hickle, written between 1976 to 1980. He reflects on his 40-plus years of experience counseling alcoholics, addicts, and their families; on the profession of addiction counseling, and on societal attitudes about alcoholism and addiction in general. Each booklet is divided into short chapters with titles such as "Alcoholic Lie a Lot" and "Sober and in Trouble" - all in a jargon-free, plain-speaking, down-to-earth style that reflects Bob's statement "I write like I talk."

Sobriety isn't just not drinking or using. Rather, it is a number of pieces that come together that make sense, creating a coherent whole which we can call life. In this audiobook, Hickle offers such pieces to consider as: "The Professionals See Them First", "I Never Got Anybody Drunk", and so much more! Like his other works, this audiobook is in Hickle's straight-forward, plain-speaking, down-to-earth, jargon-free style. Listen to enjoy, while learning at the same time.

In this second part of a five book series, the author recounts in his down-to-earth, jargon-free manner what he learned from alcoholics about alcoholism. With chapter titles like "A Word to the Professionals" and "When You're Ready, You're Ready" and "Quality Sobriety", he continues to explain what he has learned - an effort to help us all to understand the alcoholic/addict and their family and loved ones.

The author continues his dual quest of better understanding the alcoholic and alcoholism. Again with his standout chapter titles, you'll hear: "Spiritual Insight or Despair?", "Comes The Dawn", and "Dry For 15 Years, Happy For Three Months." Listen to what he has learned, how precious recovery and sobriety is, and how that motivates the recovering person to spread the word about the price they paid to get to where they are with their recovery.
