Dr. Joe Nowinski's book ideas comes from working in the trenches, not from any ivory tower. Episode 77 of Rebellion Dogs Radio looks at a run-of-the-mill problem in early recovery that doesn’t get enough ink: if we are together in a relationship and you go to treatment and come home to stay sober, should I live a sober life too? It’s your problem. Well, that’s one way to look at it; others would feel we are in this together.
Here’s another case: a couple is together for a long time. Neither has ever had a legal or health scare because of using alcohol or other drugs. Still, their consumption has increased, and the relationship is suffering from some consequences. Should they consider being a sober couple, or is sober just for people diagnosed as severe on the alcohol use disorder spectrum?
Dr. Joe Nowinski has a new book (Johns Hopkins Press Health Book, September 10, 2024) called Sober Love: How to Quit Drinking as a Couple. This is from case studies over years of family practice as a clinical psychologist.
Former Chief Medical Officer of Hazelden Betty Ford says, “Dr. Nowinski is a highly qualified expert who uses the latest research and his clinical expertise to couples that recognize that alcohol has interfered with their lives." Dr. Marvind D. Seppala goes on to say, "Alcohol can undermine even the best of relationships. Sober Love delivers the information necessary to develop a plan.”
Addiction Medicine doctor Ray Baker says, “I am delighted to recommend this gem of a book! It offers the knowledge, tips and skills needed for recovery people in intimate relationships to interconnect on their mutual journey of growth. It’s one of a kind.”
