This book is so accurate. As an addict you dont feel there is anyone else like “you”, but after reading this book you feel a support, because you know that others have and are feeling the same. I would have thought it was written about me at times. This book gives many tools that you need for recovery. I think everyone should read it that has a problem or knows someone with one, but also just to familiarize themselves with the dangers of prescription and over the counter drugs, because the most normal of people can get caught up and out of control before you know it. Thank you Cindy Mogil for such a wonderful insightful-hope giving book.

This is the best book I have ever read having to do with prescription drug addiction. It deals with every aspect of addiction – not only the addict but the families of the addict. It gives wonderful truelife stories and it encourages hopefuleness to overcome addiction. I would like to thank the author for sharing her story and founding Prescriptions Anonymous.

I think the book is an excellent reference book for anyone addicted to prescription medication and their family and friends. It offers real life stories so that you realize that it (prescription drug abuse) happens to people from all walks of life for different reasons. I liked the that the book explained warning signs for recovery relapse. The book offers practical,easy to read guidance. I also believe that the author really wants to help others and her insight to the problem makes her advice so much better than a doctor’s clinical answers.

If you suspect(or know) that you or someone you love has a problem with prescription and/or over the counter medication then this is a must read for the addict as well as those who love them. In reading what I feel is 99% of substance abuse literature available, including medical and clinical sourcebooks this is the only one that truly focuses on RX abuse. Not to say that NA and AA are not wonderful and very much needed programs,but to many,myself included feel they cant relate to the people and stories shared in the meetings. This is the first book of its kind to foucs not only on RX abuse but on the person as a whole. There is a definite need for attention to Prescription Drug abuse and more importantly the Prescription drug abuser, and this book is the perfect start for those who wish to lead a life free from addiction. And, to the Author on a more personal note, I thank you for this book for with it came the start of my recovery and the start of a better life. Best Wishes to all those who are in search of help this a a perfect place and time to start.

I investigate RX fraud by profession. This book addresses a common sense approach to life not only for the addict, but for friends and family of addicts as well. Anyone who reads this book will be moved by the stories contained within, if they have been affected by prescriptions drugs or not. I have used the advice in this book in dealing with the addicts I have encountered. Many have shown interest in reading Ms. Mogil’s book and attending RxA meetings. Finally, there is a book that addresses a very significant problem in our society. Thank you.
