Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth Wurtzel published her memoir of depression, Prozac Nation, to astonishing literary acclaim. A cultural phenomenon by age twenty-six, she had fame, money, respect—everything she had always wanted except that one, true thing: happiness. For all of her professional success, Wurtzel felt like a failure. She had lost friends and lovers, every magazine job she'd held, and way too much weight. She couldn't write, and her second book was past due. But when her doctor prescribed Ritalin to help her focus-and boost the effects of her antidepressants—Wurtzel was spared. The Ritalin worked. And worked. The pills became her sugar...the sweetness in the days that have none. Soon she began grinding up the Ritalin and snorting it. Then came the cocaine, then more Ritalin, then more cocaine. Then I need more. I always need more. For all of my life I have needed more... More, Now, Again is the brutally honest, often painful account of Wurtzel's descent into drug addiction. It is also a survival story: How Wurtzel managed to break free of her relationship with Ritalin and learned to love life, and herself, is at the heart of this ultimately uplifting memoir that no reader will soon forget.

Download or read book Loving You Thinking of You Don t Forget to Pray written by Jacqueline L. Jackson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Jacqueline Jackson, wife of Jesse Jackson, role model, and civil rights veteran, comes an inspiring gift of love to a child in his darkest hour—and a lesson to everyone who has been touched by the scourge of mass incarceration. Jacqueline Jackson promised her son, Congressman Jesse L. Jackson, Jr., that she would write him every day during his incarceration in prison while he served his thirty-month sentence. This book is an inspiring and moving selection of the letters she wrote him. Together, they comprise a powerful act of love—nurturing and ministering to her son's heart, health, and mind and maintaining his essential connection with home. Frank, anecdotal, imbued with faith, and sometimes humorous, they offer intimate details from the family’s daily life, along with news of friends and the community and glimpses of such figures as Nelson Mandela, Winnie Mandela, and Mayor Marion Barry. They also touch eloquently on issues of social justice, politics, and history, as when Mrs. Jackson recalls growing up in Jim Crow Florida, and they reflect the qualities, instilled by her own mother, that made her a role model for much of her life. Ultimately, these letters offer a blueprint for why we have to support our families not just as they elevate but when they fall. This collection is Mrs. Jackson's contribution to healing during a time when our prisons are full and our communities are suffering. She provides the road map for ensuring that the individuals serving sentences understand that prison is where they are, not who they are and for helping them sustain the courage to keep hope alive.

Download or read book No Hiding Place written by Cecil Williams and published by Harper San Francisco. This book was released on 1992 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known nationally for his spirited fight against addiction and for the empowerment of the African American family, Reverend Cecil Williams envisions a society in which there is no need to hide, one in which we recognize our problems, define ourselves, feel our pain, tell our truths, and come together in a community that accepts us as we are and nurtures us to wholeness and health. No Hiding Place tells the extraordinary story of a community where recovery is working - where Crack addicts are giving up the pipe, where abused women are coming to heal their pain, and abusive men are letting go of their rage, where the approach to recovery empowers the disempowered to define themselves, live authentically, and embrace the present moment with faith. This is the true story of Glide Memorial Church in San Francisco, an inner-city locus of self-transformation and action, where Williams has been the Minister of Liberation for twenty-nine years. In the late 1980s, Cecil Williams began to "smell death" on the streets and in "the glittering hotel lobbies" of the city of San Francisco. He realized it was drugs that were openly destroying the lives of Tenderloin district residents and secretly destroying the lives of corporate leaders and members of suburban households. Williams describes how Glide's innovative recovery programs were born, and reflects on the values and spiritual truths that make recovery possible. He decries the drug trade as an agent of genocide for African Americans and shows how black history, cultural values, and spirituality provide vital tools for resisting and overcoming the slavery of drugs. Earthy, sensitive, warm, and hard-hitting, Williams shows how communities can "putpeople in (their) bosom and rock the pain away".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times Bestseller What if everything you think you know about addiction is wrong? Johann Hari's journey into the heart of the war on drugs led him to ask this question--and to write the book that gave rise to his viral TED talk, viewed more than 62 million times, and inspired the feature film The United States vs. Billie Holiday and the documentary series The Fix. One of Johann Hari's earliest memories is of trying to wake up one of his relatives and not being able to. As he grew older, he realized he had addiction in his family. Confused, not knowing what to do, he set out and traveled over 30,000 miles over three years to discover what really causes addiction--and what really solves it. He uncovered a range of remarkable human stories--of how the war on drugs began with Billie Holiday, the great jazz singer, being stalked and killed by a racist policeman; of the scientist who discovered the surprising key to addiction; and of the countries that ended their own war on drugs--with extraordinary results. Chasing the Scream is the story of a life-changing journey that transformed the addiction debate internationally--and showed the world that the opposite of addiction is connection.
