For the woman who's fine.Until she's not.

Angie's book: twenty years of drinking, the day everything broke, and what actually worked when she finally stopped. Paperback, published by Spines.

Who it's for

Anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol. Especially the functional drinker: the one who holds a job, raises kids and keeps up relationships, but secretly knows alcohol has too much power.

It's not a medical book. If you shake, sweat or have seizures without a drink, Angie's first advice is to put the book down and call a doctor.

I'm not special. I just finally figured out what works for me.
Angela D. McCloskey, in Virgins Don't Take Pregnancy Tests

Surviving: slips and relapse, and what to do when mental health and sobriety collide.

Now: life on the other side, and a 10-tip cheat sheet you can screenshot.
