Cigarettes & Chairs by Alexander Millington

Gregg has finally taken the first step, admitting he has a problem, but now he must decide if he wants to do anything about it. With a wife he is scared to be honest with, and acquaintances who have no interest in helping him, Gregg’s night moves from bad to worse after attending his first recovery meeting. Gregg’s fight becomes even greater as he learns he has to grapple with other people’s demons as well as his own.
