Journalist Jenny Walentish has two decades of substance use behind her. Having come a long way in the fight against addiction, she wrote a book in which, using her own story as an illustration, she explores this problem from a woman’s point of view. Drawing on the insights of leading researchers, clinicians, and psychiatrists, the author examines the early warning signs of addictive behavior, such as trauma, temperament, and impulsivity, and explains why eating disorders, shopaholism, and risky sex are interchangeable with substance abuse. From her childhood in suburban London to her turbulent years growing up in the London music world, we follow Valentish to Australia, where she has first-hand experience of drug treatment clinics and Alcoholics Anonymous groups, wondering whether they meet the needs of women. Valentis is convinced that in order for all women who need help to receive it, the characteristics of women's addictions must be taken into account in research, therapy and social policy. This honest, frank book will evoke empathy in any reader, and at the same time, it can be extremely useful to those for whom the topic of addiction is relevant.
