If you really loved me ... : how to survive any addiction in the family / Joyce and James Ditzler.

"Drugs, alcohol, gambling... they're all addictions, dependencies that are the devastating mainsprings of countless lives, wreaking the most destructive consequences on home and family, on every personal relationship. This very practical handbook is designed for everyone struggling to survive a relationship with an addict, be it a friend, a lover, a husband, a wife, a parent, or a child. It shows how making excuses and covering up is indulging a destructive addiction and a recipe for even greater disaster."--From cover.
