Not Me!: Convince Anyone You're Not a Problem Drinker

By Joel L. Kruger

Book Overview

In this laugh-out-loud satire, Jim proudly defends "free drinkers" everywhere while sharing his 'foolproof' tips for dodging pesky questions about his drinking. From outsmarting a therapist (even after "just a few") to forming groups that protect drinkers' "rights," Jim shows denial in action-raw, ridiculous, and hilarious.

Beneath the humor lies a sharper truth. This parody uses actual diagnostic questions and examples from the best-selling book Light Reflections into the Darkness of Denial and the Alcoholic Mind. By exaggerating the excuses drinkers often use, it exposes the absurd ways alcoholics rationalize their drinking to avoid facing reality.

For sober alcoholics in recovery, laughter is more than entertainment-it's medicine. By laughing at the very behaviors that once trapped them, readers can replace shame with relief and guilt with growth.

Perfect for: Sober alcoholics who can laugh at their pastFriends and family seeking insight into denialAnyone who enjoys humor with a serious message

Funny and eye-opening-this book proves that sometimes the best way to break free from denial is to laugh at it.
