About the Book

This book is a testimony and self disclosure of my life growing up in a poor dysfunctional alcoholic household. By 1997 I was convinced that I was a victim of the disease of addiction and came to recognize where my addiction had taken me. I was then facing 3-6 years of incarceration because of my addiction and possession of a controlled substance.

Treatment has worked for me because I was afforded the opportunity to look at self and how low my self esteem was. In addition my addiction left me with the major feelings of fear: Fear of failure, fair or success and ultimately fear of failure to succeed. But I confronted fear it the face and showed tear that I will be the dynamic person God has destined me to be. It is the hoped that those struggling with the disease of addiction may learn and find something in this chronicle of events to help them taste the flavor of recovery.

Believe me the battle is ongoing and Spirituality plays an integral part in the recovery from this fatal disease. I thank my God of my understanding for his wonderful work in my life.


About the Author: The author of Victory in Recovery is a recovering addict for six years now. He has taken the pain to tell the world and other active addicts and recovering addicts the events leading up to his full blown addiction and his insanity. He also took the pain to introduce you to his childhood as he grew up in Guyana, South America in a poor dysfunctional alcoholic home. How he strived to be accepted for fear of failure. He categorically mentions the strong bond which he had with his mother and the estranged relationship between himself and his father.

Having migrated to the United States of America in 1974 he was hit with culture shock among other things which he vehemently fought including, his long battle with Immigration.

Finally, he has managed to maintain his sobriety. But before he was able to claim his victory; he also experienced serious housing problems after completing treatment in a Therapeutic Community necessitating him to write to the president of the United States, President William Jefferson Clinton to secure affordable housing which happens to be one of the abandon buildings which he once slept in during his active homelessness and addiction.
