A guide & workbook for people in recovery
by Ken Montrose

Too many people in recovery relapse because of prescription medications. This workbook outlines a five step plan for taking medications and holding onto recovery. The reader is encouraged to see prescriptions as a contract, where she has the responsibility to do everything in her power to need as little of the medication as possible. Being rigorously honest with prescribing professionals and taking a daily inventory are also emphasized. Written exercises help the reader explore his use of prescribed medications.

"No amount of [Twelve Step]meetings, diet, exercise, meditation, or alternative treatments will cure some ailments. In these instances, and following strict guidelines, medications . . . may be an integral part of recovery." Staying Clean, Taking Medications, p.21.
