Recover Me
Book •
In the episode DJ Fat Tony describes this new book as a user’s guide to overcoming insanity and recovering from trauma and addictive behaviours; co-authored with his therapist Tara, it combines Tony’s lived experience with therapeutic insight and practical tools.
He explains the book’s aim is wider than addiction — addressing learned behaviours, trauma responses, and practical recovery steps — and structured like therapy sessions with Tara’s contributions separated for clarity.
Tony frames it as accessible self-help written in a non-clinical voice to help readers recognise and begin to heal their own patterns.
The conversation positions the book as intended for anyone recovering from any form of self-medication or trauma, not only substance misuse.
