My regular readers will know that I write articles on a variety of subjects in practical psychology, including alcoholism. I have a particular interest in the well-being of families of alcoholics and other addicts. I am such a family member myself.
I came across a new website today called Addiction Recovery Basics by Bill Urell, who works with people recovering from addictions. Check it out. He has good articles on chemical dependency, 12-step, and the depression that so often accompanies substance-abuse and recovery.
I expect that over time our writings will complement each other.
On a personal note, there are a few parallels between us, although I may be a bit longer in the tooth than Bill. Just before Christmas I was honored with a cake for 30 years of sobriety at the alcohol and drug treatment center where I am the consulting psychologist.
Bill says he bought a convertible. I bought a motorcycle last year. (Is this a male thing or a stage-of-life thing?)
Anyway Bill, congratulations on your new internet venture!
