While attending his first high school party, he was introduced to pot and alcohol. Needless to say, he gave in to the pressure. A month after that, he discovered heroin.

Book Synopsis TEENERSHIP by : Randall Mitchell

Download or read book TEENERSHIP written by Randall Mitchell. This book was released on 2013-01-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teenership- leadership for teens. I have tapped into this unique market because as a teen I had responsibility at school and in the community. Unfortunately all leadership books were for the older crowed in oversized suites and briefcases. There was nothing for the average teen to help us get through school and family life. I have therefore compiled a short easy to read book with personal life lessons. It will help you take charge of your mind, body & spirit. Many other topics are covered, such as bullying, breakups and peer pressure. I believe that before you lead others, you must first be able to lead yourself. I also believe that leadership starts now whilst you are a teen. It starts when you have the capability of making decisions that will shape your future. Let me help you shape the future you desire!

Book Synopsis Double-edged Sword by : Simonne Butler

Download or read book Double-edged Sword written by Simonne Butler. This book was released on 2016-11. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Double-edged Sword is a survival story like no other. In 2003 Simonne Butler's violent partner, high on methamphetamine, cut off both her hands with a samurai sword. Her hands were reattached in a groundbreaking marathon surgery and she spent the next decade healing her mind, body and spirit. Despite five years in an extremely physically and emotionally abusive relationship, Simonne always had an unbreakable spirit. Even when her self-confidence and sense of self-preservation was at rock bottom, she was able to source phenomenal strength that saw her survive horrendous blood loss and being left for dead for hours, holding her severed limbs in such a way that allowed revascularisation to be possible. Facing obstacles from the very start, including a troubled childhood and an alcoholic and volatile mother, Simonne's optimism and determination have always shone through. Every victim of domestic violence must read this book, and their friends and family. Even those who have never been the victim of violence will be inspired, moved and enlightened by this candid and brutal memoir. Double-edged Sword is so much more than just a story of survival, it is a guidebook for humanity - how to shrug off the oppressors and the obstacles and live your life with the greatest intensity you can muster. It's about conquering the demons and rising like a phoenix from the ashes and learning how to live with passion, honesty and love.

Book Synopsis The Book of Drugs by : Mike Doughty

Download or read book The Book of Drugs written by Mike Doughty. This book was released on 2012-01-10. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mike Doughty first came to prominence as the leader of the band Soul Coughing then did an abrupt sonic left turn, much to the surprise of his audience, transforming into a solo performer of stark, dusky, but strangely hopeful tunes. He battled addiction, gave up fame when his old band was at the height of its popularity, drove thousands of miles, alone, across America, with just an acoustic guitar. His candid, hilarious, self-lacerating memoir, The Book of Drugs -- featuring cameos by Redman, Ani DiFranco, the late Jeff Buckley, and others -- is the story of his band's rise and bitter collapse, the haunted and darkly comical life of addiction, and the perhaps even weirder world of recovery./DIV
