10 Mindsets That Can Cause Drug and Alcohol Addiction and Mess up Sobriety

By Glenn Langohr

Resentment. Denial. Fear. Self-pity. Intolerance. Anger.

These aren't just emotions-they are destructive ways of thinking that can quietly sabotage recovery and pull a person back toward addiction.

In 10 Mindsets That Can Cause Drug and Alcohol Addiction and Mess Up Sobriety, Glenn Langohr goes straight to the real battlefield of recovery: the mind. Instead of focusing only on behavior, this book exposes the thought patterns and attitudes that fuel relapse, keep people stuck, or turn sobriety into a miserable struggle.

This practical guide explores ten negative mindsets that often:

Trigger relapse

Undermine long-term sobriety

Poison relationships and motivation

Turn recovery into constant frustration and defeat

More importantly, it shows you how to challenge, replace, and retrain these patterns into healthier, more honest, and more hopeful ways of thinking.

Using journaling exercises, self-examination, and principles drawn from the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, this book helps you:

Identify your personal thinking traps

Take an honest inventory without self-condemnation

Break destructive mental cycles

Build a mindset that supports real, lasting recovery

Move from just "not using" to actually living well

This is not theory. It's a hands-on recovery tool for anyone who is tired of repeating the same patterns and wants a sobriety that is not only clean-but stable, meaningful, and free.

If you want to protect your recovery, strengthen your thinking, and stop sabotaging your own progress, this book will help you change your mind-and change your life.
