Welcome to the September 15, 2007 edition of addiction recovery. This is the first Blog Carnival on addiction recovery that I have hosted. I am really pleased at the diversity and number of submissions I received. These are future friends and fellow bloggers who produce complimentary content to my own.Be adventurous, visit some new blogs and enjoy.
Joanne Hay presents Sweet Sustenance posted at The Nourisher, saying, “Refined sugar is our first addiction. It is not a food but a drug and it sets off a chain of addictions into adulthood. This article is about how I got off the roller coaster ride of sugar addiction.”
Next is Isabella Mori, a pschotherapist working out of Vancouver CA. Her blog has won and been nominated for professional awards. Categories covered on her blog are addictions, mental health, emotional health and spirituality, and a lot more.

Therapy Doc is yet another professional squeezing time out of his social work practice to operate an informative blog on addictions, relationships, emotional stability and staying in recovery. He states “If you’re in a warm, sunny climate, I’d consider guest lecturing at your institution, topic your choice.” I know the feeling, I had a job offer in northern Minnesota and one in West Palm Beach, Fl…Greetings from sunny West Palm Beach.

Relapse warning signs are common in those people who are addicted in alcohol and even drugs. However, only few people understand that. Even alcoholics themselves who quit from their addiction after a year or so does not even know that they have it. Thus, they cannot even prepare themselves to take the right actions. At least now, I have enough resources to get information on drug addiction and sorts.
