Publisher's summary

The Fastest Way to Stop Drinking... Imagine if tomorrow you wake up with no hangover, no regrets and feeling full of energy and vitality. Picture your bank account with thousands of extra dollars in it and imagine what life would be like if you had a limitless abundance of quality time with your family and loved ones? If you are drinking on a regular basis then alcohol is stealing all that from you everyday. My name is Craig Beck; I used to be just like you... My drinking was hopelessly out of control for nearly two decades. Nothing I tried made any difference, I attempted dry weeks and months but I always just ended up drinking even more than before. My doctor agreed it was time to cut down but he could offer no practical solution to help me to do so. I concluded that the only way I was going to escape the insidious trap of alcohol was to throw away all the ‘advice' I had been previously given and do the unthinkable. The result is, I not only cured my own drink problem but I have since helped over 50,000 fellow drinkers to also escape.

  • No need to declare yourself an alcoholic.
  • A permanent cure, not a lifetime struggle.
  • No group meetings or expensive rehab.
  • No humiliation, no pain and 100% no ‘willpower' required.
  • No cravings, no medication and no silly gimmicks.

By the way… there are two very similar version of this book (only the title varies slightly). The fact you have found this one and not the other is a very good sign. Inside I will tell you why.

Awesome book

I had stopped drinking for two weeks before I bought this book. I was looking for a book that could explain how to continue sobriety, conquer cravings and help me to change my mindset about booze. I knew that willpower wouldn’t work, I knew that doing it for someone else wouldn’t work, I needed a mind shift. And I got it here in this book. Craig made me laugh and think deeply about my addiction. I got new information and confirmation of some things I already knew (either through horrible experience or other educative reading and therapy).
I feel freed.

FINALLY ....

... someone witty and intelligent tells us how to give up alcohol in a way other than 12 steps, higher powers, guilt and desperation!!! I have been waiting for this for decades, literally. I knew there had to be a way to deal with my functional "alcoholism" other than holding hands with strangers in a church basement. Craig Beck offers a unique approach by speaking to us with humor and respect. He shows us that the real culprit is alcohol itself -- and the culture that celebrates it. He speaks to the drinker as a strong person who unwittingly finds him/herself in a bad situation and wants to get out of it. No need to feel weak or guilty, no matter how many times you have tried to quit and failed. He explains exactly -- and convincingly -- why you should try again. And he offers a simple, logical and personal way to succeed. I gave up my wine before I even finished the book, and am looking forward to listening to the rest of his books. His writing/speaking style is casual, funny, articulate and motivating. Hellfire and damnation are definitely missing from his message. I wish EVERYONE would read this book, whether they want to stop drinking or not. His insights are valuable to all of us.

It worked!!

Finally! I have tried everything and have been going to AA for years, but this information was what I needed to hear! I no longer crave alcohol or feel like I am missing something I used to love. I realize all the lies I was telling myself and view alcohol as poison. Thank you! I finally feel like me again…happy, joyous and free!!

A Deeper Understanding of Alcoholism

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and it's deep dives into the various parts of alcoholism, including statistical data, science and life experiences. I learned a lot and I look forward to reading more titles from this author. Thank you, Craig!

This book stopped the merry go round...

VERY effective! This is not an AA or scare tactic approach, but a light hearted read/listen (giving me a few good chuckles) and at the same time Beck's shared experiences hit home with mine. He touches on the damage alcohol does and a sensible approach to making one think twice about drinking, why we drink and why we should stop. In the last chapters he offers a regiment of natural supplements which I followed and within a couple of days my mood has shifted. While it may have been because I was "ready" for real change after two years of over-drinking I haven't had the urge to have a drink in several days. You don't realize you've missed clarity until you're experiencing it.

Very thankful for this advise

It is a clear road map that simply needs to be followed
for guaranteed success

Clearly the EGO needs to be told to go F*#% themselves and I am up for the challenge

Thankfully, now that I posses the knowledge, insight and the “tools” I can continue on my journey

I am getting there slowly but surely which I finally acknowledge as the only way to effectively get this task accomplished once and for all!

Fascinating

Science based logical and truthful approach to educate people about the downside of drinking alcohol. I needed this book for I help stop the voices in my head from convincing me my drinking alcohol was okay. I am going to quit.
