About this listen
From best-selling Kindle Singles author Mishka Shubaly comes Cold Turkey, a step by step roadmap for approaching the harrowing first month of sobriety. Himself 10 years sober, Shubaly addresses the slippery nature of alcoholism, and the messy, anxiety-ridden process of making the decision to stop drinking once and for all.
For Shubaly, there is no one-size-fits-all plan. He refutes the notion that the one and only solution for those struggling are 12-step programs and provides a guide for those who want a different approach to getting sober. This is a how-to for those who are serious about taking their lives back, but are ready to define their sobriety on their own terms.
In the process, Shubaly exposes - in brutal, up-close, and yes, even absurd and funny detail - what drove him to drink, how he put the bottle down, and the surprising life that awaited him when he did. Cold Turkey real, practical, and intimate advice for those struggling, straight from someone who has really been there. Sure, he understands that for the first three days, you might need to eat all the pizza and all the greasy Chinese food. But he also understands the urgent need to improve your life and habits little by little, day by day. Shubaly, no doubt, becomes the listener’s cheerleader. He wants anyone struggling to succeed.
Ultimately, the takeaway is very simple; if Shubaly did it, you can too. And more than that, he’ll be right there with you every step of the way.

enjoyable story
Some shocking moments (which serve an important purpose) but overall this book was a very enjoyable listen and helped reinforce the point that I do not need alcohol in my life! I'm 51 days without a drop so some of the steps in here are too late, but...still a very strong message which has made my desire to remain AF much stronger.

Wonderful book
Great book. No BS, 100 percent straight up, great insights. Funny and tough where it needs to be. No waffle or padding. This might be the one that really helped me get there!

Excellent
Mishka has never disappointed me once. Read all of his books and will read everything else he puts out until either of us dies. It is so easy to understand him, and he keeps it real. Excellent read (listen?), I am not an alcoholic but I understand so much more about what it is like to claw yourself out if an addiction on your own terms.

Really Good Book
I've read so many books about addiction but this one is by far the most one that's resonated with me. I highly recommend it.
Thank you Mishka!

The best book I’ve read on the subject
I’ve read almost everything on the topic. This is something different. Something honest that I can truly relate to. It touches on lots of topics that many are too afraid to mention. If you want a no-nonsense approach, this is it.

Eye opening, savage, and beyond helpful
Thank you. I have only ever seen bs Hollywood films portraying a certain type of journey, nothing I could identify with until now. This is so real, and so relatable.

Razor Sharp Honesty and Insight
This book is candid, uncompromisingly honest, insightful, and challenging. It forced me to face up to myself and has given me a roadmap to change how I live my life. Superb.
