Alcohol and Drugs Ruining Your Life?
Enough Already!
Enough Already! is an easy read that educates alcoholics and addicts on precisely what to do to get and stay sober. After learning about the disease of alcoholism/addiction and time-tested tools of recovery, the reader is introduced to relapse prevention strategies, the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12 Step programs, and coping skills to deal with uncomfortable emotions that often lead to drug and alcohol use. This is followed by specific instructions on how to get started in recovery and a final inspiring chapter entitled “The Miracle.” Having years of sobriety and experience in the field of chemical dependency, Bob presents the information in this book drawing from personal and professional perspectives. Therefore, the reader learns the principles of sobriety and how to apply them in daily living through Bob’s candid self-disclosure – a unique quality of this book.
Enough Already!: A Guide to Recovery from Alcohol and Drug Addiction
At first I thought this book was a little simplistic, but I continued on. It really was a great book that outlines the steps to begin and maintain recovery. It doesn’t have to be complicated to be effective. I would highly recommend for anyone with an addiction or anyone who is dealing with someone else’s addiction.

A MUST read!
“Enough Already”, by Bob Tyler, is an excellent resource for anyone with an alcohol/drug problem who is considering seeking help, as well as for loved ones, addictions counselors, and anyone in recovery from addiction. Speaking from the heart, Bob provides a comprehensive and easy to understand primer concerning how to seek out help for an addiction problem, and what to expect along the road to recovery. His book is also a great reference for anyone working in the field! I particularly enjoyed his treatment of the 12 Steps – especially Step 3 – turning our lives over to a beneficent higher power.

I read this book today. I have been “sober” since 1987 and working in the Recovery Treatment Profession since 1989. This is THE BEST book offering 12 step recovery, personal anecdotes and a thorough but easy to understand explanation of “relapse prevention” on the market! This is a MUST for the library of all persons effected by addictions. Whether you are a seasoned therapist, student, recovering person or a family member, buy two (2) of these wondeful texts. Buy one for yourself and one for a friend, family member or colleague!

As a student in a drug and alcohol counseling program, I have found Mr. Tyler’s book to be extremely useful. His explanation of the twelve-step program process is comprehensive and insightful; and I believe it would be invaluable to anyone entering the field who has not yet participated in one of the many 12-step programs out there. I am on my second reading of this book already; and I am sure it will become a major tool for me upon graduation and entry into the substance abuse counseling field. Well done, Mr. Tyler!
