Book overview
Ever wonder what it's like... To be addicted to alcohol, cocaine, ecstasy, weed, chaos, gambling, sex, strippers and escorts, fast money, and more? To be diagnosed with bipolar disorder, OCD, ADHD, extreme anxiety disorder, manic depression, and impulsiveness? To go from being an atheist, to finding and loving God? I'm all of the above. By sixteen years old I was exposed to and active with: pimps, whores, booze, drugs, drug dealers, bars, bookies, casinos, gangsters, and strip clubs. Living with undiagnosed mental health disorders, I drank insane amounts of alcohol and snorted incredible amounts of cocaine. I was a sex addict with strippers three at a time and a compulsive gambler repeatedly gambling my money away and getting into serious trouble with dangerous bookies. This is my life story from the perspective of my thinking at the time while living with these brain diseases and compulsions. You'll be inside my head when I was active and totally crazy, through my enlightenment, growth and complete transformation of sobriety, faith and peace. Alcoholism made me so sick I drank every morning when I awoke just to function and continue drinking all day, every day, for years. This resulted in a two-year period where I was medically detoxed seven times, spent two months in hospitals and detox centers and three, thirty-day trips to rehab with two serious death scares. It's a miracle that I'm alive. I began my journey of recovery as a strict atheist. I'll show you how I honestly found God and the relationship I have with Him. To change the stigma everyone must comprehend what it's like to suffer. Hopefully addicts, alcoholics and everyone dealing with anxiety and depression read this and understand it's possible to get better. Let me show you how. My story will entertain you cover to cover being full of laughs and crazy people and stories. I promise seeing the sick and badly addicted guy I was, compared to today, you'll gain a different view and understand the diseases, moods, emotions, actions, cravings, psyche, thinking, and behaviors behind it all. I believe God spared me to change and save lives. Enjoy! Alex
