About the Book
Addiction and mental illness affect countless people every day.
Families and friends struggle to understand what is happening to
those they love and seek ways to help them. In the new book What If I’
m Right?: A Book that Celebrates Spiritual Intuition, author Carla
Wilson, MSW shares her personal and professional experiences with
addiction and incarceration.
Addiction is an insidious and corrosive adversary. It can destroy not
only the life of the addict, but the lives of those closest to them. Many
people are reluctant to seek help for a loved one’s struggles with
addiction or for themselves. This reluctance can come from pride,
embarrassment or simply not knowing how to help or where to find
help. What If I’m Right? provides a resource for both those struggling
with addiction and those struggling to help them.
Based on almost two decades of experience, What If I’m Right?
seeks to make those struggling with the privations of addiction aware
that they are not alone. Within its pages, What If I’m Right? provides
the tools needed to recognize addiction, accept the reality of that
addiction and seek help.
With a guide to seeking out support programs, meditations and
prayers What If I’m Right? is a compassionate and comprehensive
resource for anyone seeking to break the chains of addiction or to
understand the disease that plagues someone close to them.
