Alcohol Lied to Me: The Intelligent Escape from Alcohol Addiction

By: Craig Beck

Narrated by: Craig Beck

Craig Beck was a successful and functioning professional man in spite of a 'two bottles of wine a night' drinking habit. For 20 years, he struggled with problem drinking, all the time refusing to label himself an alcoholic because he did not think he met the stereotypical image that the word portrayed. All these 'willpower' based attempts to stop drinking failed. Slowly he discovered the truth about alcohol addiction & one by one all the lies he had previously believed started to fall apart. For the first time he noticed that he genuinely didn't want to drink anymore. In this book he will lead you though the same amazing process. You can stop drinking today. . . No need to declare yourself an alcoholic. No group meetings or expensive rehab. No humiliation, no pain and no 'will power' required. Alcohol Lied to Me has already helped thousands of people to escape from alcohol addiction. Newly updated, this third edition of the book includes two new chapters.

Great Book

This is truly a life changing book
The title says everything and Greg does a great job in the audiobook to show you this

Five stars aren’t enough!!!

Mr. Beck provides a profound, hopeful and real approach to ending the cycle. He takes you through a process of making you own it, understand it and face how alcohol can sink it’s teeth into and destroy your life.
Thank you!

This book changed my life.

I learned of this book after listening to the author's podcast. I've tried counseling, I've tried AA, I've tried the will power method, and would have a few days or weeks of success before inevitably falling off the wagon. This book spoke to me in a way that resonated in my mind for weeks afterward. Not only did the author dispel a lot of common myths about alcohol, but changed the way I looked at alcohol entirely. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough!

What an incredible book. Life changing!

What an incredible book. Very interesting and engaging. This book is life changing! Your opinion of alcohol will be forever changed

loved it!!

Great book would recommend everybody to buy the audio book. Well worth it!! This book offers hope to many failed attempts

Terrific encouragement

Craig reads it like a champ and is super helpful in the journey to stop drinking.

Finally......

I have been drinking for over 25 years, gradually increasing over time. For two years I’ve tried to quit but always go right back to it. Craig has helped me see alcohol in a different light and he’s right. Until you adopt this mindset you’ll never be free of the want. Bonus! He forgot to mention that you’ll lose about 20 pounds!!!! Thank you Craig for helping me be a present member of my family.

5 stars

Loved it! Witty, I laughed at times at how dumb our minds are in regards to alcohol consumption. Spot on same experiences as the author.

great book

this book was very helpful and I really enjoyed reading it. the author really did a good job of presenting it in a manner that is very pleasant and helpful. I think I will be successful this time in staying sober for good.

Helpful for anyone worried about their drinking

I started with This Naked Mind by Annie Grace. I have to say, that book is phenomenal and I’d give it more than 5 stars if I could. This book is similar. Both help you to realize that not drinking is better than drinking, and that without that realization you will be forever caught between your unconscious mind that wants to drink and your conscious mind that isn’t so sure you should. I’m glad I listened to this book after This Naked Mind, but if without question if I was just going to listen to one, it would be This Naked Mind. Something about it did a better job proving to me that I really would be happier without it, that I really am not giving up or sacrificing anything by stopping drinking entirely. Also, Alcohol Lied To Me contains some slightly out-there stuff that turns me off, like a form of Hawaiian spiritualism that the author likes, places to tap on your face when you have a craving, and a very specific shopping list of supplements that he insists are practically required. Annie Grace, in contrast, just helps you change your unconscious mind’s opinion of alcohol so that it aligns with your conscious mind’s desire not to drink, thus creating harmony in your mind and removing any requirement for willpower, face tapping, supplements, or any other outside force. By all means, read this book too. There are a few points worth hearing. But This Naked Mind is the more perfected version of a very similar “method.”
