30 Days to Finding Peace in an....

Diane Torres

This book takes the reader on a 30 day journey to finding peace and happiness in an alcoholic relationship.


I am the wife of an alcoholic/drug addict. Surviving this type of relationship for almost 25 years has not been easy. I knew I needed help. I searched the Internet and bookstores for literature on successfully maintaining and remaining in this type of relationship from a Biblical perspective, but found virtually nothing. I had to have answers.

I began searching the Scriptures, attending open AA meetings, Al-Anon meetings, counseling, and group therapy. I met with top counselors on drug and alcohol addictions, and read numerous books on the psychological and physiological effects of this disease on the alcoholic/addict and those closest to him. I have spoken with, listened to, and empathized with other women and men in similar situations.

In so doing, I soon saw there was a need to share what I had learned with others; so, I developed a Christian website on this topic. As I continued to add articles to this website, I quickly figured out it would benefit the audience to turn these articles into book form.

It is my prayer that others may find help and comfort from these pages.

Yes. Yes. Yes. I agree with you. I'm actually working editing the chapters. Not done yet. Then, I will rearrange the setup of each chapter -- a quote at the beginning, breaking it up into titled sections, and then adding questions at the end of each chapter. It will be great when I'm done. ... view book

Good points! I like the idea of reaching beyond the Christian world, but I don't want to take out the Biblical references. The Bible verses are a lot of what made my healing possible. It's how I found peace. As for anonymity, I tried to do this throughout the book. Diane Torres is a pseudonym. Th... view book

Thank you for your comment. Yes, I see what you mean about being more forceful in the first person. I have been thinking the same thing. Also, about the God thing. Let me gel on that a while. This book's audience is intended to be Christians which is why there are so many Biblical referenc... view book
