All or Nothing

Hi there,

Thanks so much for grabbing this book!
My name is Mart Laven, social worker, 43 years old and now I am living in Maastricht, the south of Holland. I finally feel at home and at peace. My life and especially the last 4 years have been a rollercoaster for me. I sold my appartment in Amsterdam in 2018, too many temptations;)
I've spend the last 2 years in India and Australia to do some soul searching. I battled with my cocaine and gambling addiction along the way. I lost about 100.000 euro due to gambling online and in casino's. Now I am proud to say I am off the drugs completely and I stopped online gambling since september 2021. I never want to go back to this isolated, lonely time, where I was using cocaine, many times alone in my appartment. If you recognise this, please seek professional help.
I experienced different forms of abuse which I'll tell you in my book. With this diary like book I hope to inspire you to write your own story.
