- I quit drinking in 1999
- I quit cigarettes in 2000
- I quit nearly eleven years of antidepressants in 2001
- I quit cannabis in 2004
And I have never relapsed on any of them. Not once.
Welcome, I’m Max Goldberg.
"The fight doesn't have to last forever — I know, because mine did not."
This is an educational course — not medical advice or treatment. Please read the full disclaimer below.
A different view of relapse.
A prevailing narrative around relapse and recovery is that once you have a problem, you will always have one.
I do not agree.
What this course is.
- A framework built on clear pillars
- See the system beneath the behavior
- Change that, so it finally holds
What this course is not.
- Not techniques, scripts, worksheets or checklists
- Not coaching, community, or calls
- Not a promise or guarantee of success
What is included.
Seven sessions — delivered every other day — over two weeks. Each session includes:
A written chapter (about 12 minutes to read), with a short reflection at the end
An audio companion (about 7-10 minutes to listen)
Progress at your own pace. Return to any chapter as often as you want.
Who this is for.
- You're tired of being told it's permanent
- You want more than tactics, tips, or willpower
- You have quit before, and gone back
What this course is not.
- You're in acute crisis or need immediate clinical help
- You want community, sponsorship, or accountability
- You're looking for a guarantee, not a framework
