There’s been a flury of news in the media this past year about young celbs getting in trouble with substance abuse. Drugs and alcohol are easy to get no matter who you are (despite best efforts of parents, stores and law enforcement) and the fact that the cool kids like Britney, Paris and Lindsey are always seen in some state of intoxication make them all the more wanted. Its little wonder there’s an epidemic of drug and alcohol abuse among teens and young adults. Luckily there’s more than just expensive rehab and help programs available, there’s also a wide variety of alcohol and substance abuse books that help not only the abuser but those trying to help them get clean.

Whether you’re a parent or a friend books like Bob Meehan’s “Beyond the Yellow Brick Road” can help you. Meehan writes from the perspective of someone who has been there because he has. His books carry more real life meaning and truth than a lot of the self help books available today because of the insight. Visit Meek Publishing to see their selection of alcohol and substance abuse books and check out the first couple of chapters of his book. I bet it will change your life.
