Excerpt:
“Alcoholism – A Merry-Go-Round Named Denial depicts the cycle of alcoholism and illustrates its effects on the alcoholic, family members, and others who figure in the alcoholic’s life.  The pamphlet discusses the dynamics that share how the alcoholic and family members respond to the problem and to each other, and it offers suggestions on how to get off the merry-go-round.”
