Rehab: One Woman's Experience of the Road to Recovery

This book is part-handbook, part-memoir for anyone standing on the edge of rehab, overwhelmed by fear, uncertainty, and the unknown. Written for people questioning their relationship with alcohol or preparing to enter treatment, it gently demystifies what rehab is really like, step by step.

From what to pack and what the first days feel like, to daily routines, therapy formats, group dynamics, emotional highs and lows, and the reality of life after discharge, this book offers clear and compassionate insight into the full experience of recovery. Alongside practical guidance, it shares a lived experience of resistance, vulnerability, loneliness, and unexpected moments of clarity that come with surrendering to change.

This is not a clinical manual or a story of instant transformation. It is an honest, human account for anyone who feels scared, sceptical, hopeful, or simply exhausted.
