Support and self-help for teens facing difficult patterns

Drawing on the experiences of three teenagers, Kendall Johnson’s guide addresses substance use and other difficult or compulsive behaviors alongside the fears, anxiety, and shame connected to them. It lays out steps that include acknowledging when a problem is too much to manage alone, using support from a Twelve-Step program, and identifying situations that can trigger harmful behavior. The book also frames setbacks as part of the effort to move toward recovery. Its scope extends beyond drugs and alcohol to concerns such as food, drinking, violence, and anxiety, making it a guide to recognizing challenges and considering sources of support.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens seeking self-help around substance use or compulsive behaviors
  • Young people interested in understanding triggers and recovery support
  • Parents seeking a resource that addresses teen struggles and support options

Book overview

Fears. Drugs. Anxiety. Violence. Drinking. Shame. Food. These are the issues. This is how you can help.

The problem may be alcohol or drugs. It may be food, or any uncontrollable pattern of behavior. Today more and more teenagers-and their parents--understand how important it is to turn their lives around. This book provides the answers for teens who are ready to help themselves. Drawing on the real-life stories of three teens, this book shows how to:

  • overcome the first hurdle--admitting that the problem is too much to handle alone
  • understand how to use the support of a Twelve-Step program
  • recognize people and situation that trigger negative behavior, and learn to avoid them
  • uncover the fear, anxiety, and shame that fuels any addiction
  • turn a setback into one more positive step toward recovery
Turning Yourself Around will lead teens toward hope, self-esteem, and the chance to create a positive future.
