Two powerful approaches are combined in this Handbook to help individuals who are affected by the addictive behavior of someone they care about: SMART Recovery tools for dealing in a healthy way with emotionally challenging situations, and the principles of the evidence-based Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) approach. Studies have shown CRAFT to be significantly more effective than either Al-Anon or Johnson interventions for getting addicted individuals into treatment.

Written in simple, straightforward language, this Handbook includes tools, exercises, and practical strategies. Topics include: Change and Motivation, Positive Communication, Healthy Boundaries, Safety and Support, Coping with Lapses, Disabling the Enabling, Trust and Forgiveness – and much more. It can be used on its own or in conjunction with attendance at SMART Family & Friends online or community meetings.

A Family & Friends meeting participant states: “I came to SMART to get help dealing with my partner’s addiction. What I got are tools that help me deal more effectively with almost every aspect of MY life.”

Review: I admit I was thinking this was just another gimmicky alternative to AA that made promises for easy success. I was wrong, the smart recovery for friends and family clearly showed me how I am unknowingly contributing to the loved one’s addiction and what I can do to change myself for the better. I would recommend this book to anyone not getting benefits from Al-Anon or counseling.

Review: This book has been a great guide to help me in dealing with my son who has a drug addiction. I wish I would’ve found this a couple of years ago when we first started seeing signs. I have been able to use this as a guide to help me move away from my enabling ways and even though we are stilll dealing with my son I feel like we are in a much better situation. I ordered Smart Recovery for him but he has not read it yet.

Review: This is a handbook and self-help manual for people who are struggling to help a family member or friend that has a substance use problem. The focus is on self-care, setting appropriate boundaries, and moving the loved one toward treatment. It is well-written and I consider it the best starting point for family members who are frustrated with their loved one’s behavior. Provides real guidance for people who want to get out of the cycle of avoiding the problem, nagging, and arguing.
