LA Addiction Specialist Pens The Staying Sober Handbook; Becomes Bestseller

“I wanted to draw from all the relevant evidence-based research, science, medicine, and information on addiction from the past few decades, and put it in one, concise book,” said Howard P. Goodman. “With so many theories and approaches to addiction today, I felt it was important to consolidate all the information in one spot so struggling friends and families have a better opportunity to live in recovery.”

“The Staying Sober Handbook” is based on the new treatment paradigm, Recovery Management: a science-based approach that recognizes addiction as a chronic medical condition whose symptoms can be successfully managed with proper treatment and on-going care. Additionally, the informative guide teaches individuals how to master the 24 most effective recovery-centric skills, techniques, practices, activities, and behaviors needed to maintain long-term sobriety.

This book also teaches readers how to organize these 24 skills into a balanced daily schedule. Goodman feels it is necessary to make addiction recovery manageable for those who are suffering. His book breaks it down and makes it easy to identify the small steps that are needed along the recovery journey. Recognizing the ways addiction impacts the family, Goodman includes a section to help friends, family members, and loved ones get the help they need to begin the healing process.

Goodman’s best-selling book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major book carriers. “The Staying Sobriety Handbook”, which reached number one on three different Amazon best-selling lists, brings a new medicinal perspective to a condition that plague millions of people worldwide.
