Great

Great book for anyone suffering with the effects of addiction in a family or friend.

Alanon: Help for those affected by another's drinking

This book may help lead you toward a peaceful life. I read a page of it almost ever morning, along with One Day at a Time in Alanon, and Courage to Change. I also go to Alanon meetings regularly. I suggest that if you feel affected by another's drinking, GO and check out Alanon. Even if you feel like "Why should I go? I don't have a problem!" That's how I felt, GO ANYWAY. You can google Alanon, and find a meeting in your area. There are also 800 numbers. There are NO dues or fees for membership (we are self supporting through our own voluntary contributions), and it is an anonymous program. We have a saying at meetings, "What you hear here, who you see here, when you leave here, let it stay here." Anonymity is sacred to members, so please don't let fear of "being recognized" scare you away. Alanon has helped to save my life. I went because I was at my wit's end: angry, frustrated, sad. Now, I have a life that I treasure. Take heart, for you can, too.

Hope for Today

The book is like a daily meditation, however, it allows you to search the index for a topic of need. It's another helpful tool and is small enough to carry along with you. The Twelve Steps are listed in the back for quick reference.

Great resouce!

Very helpful book for those who had an alcoholic influence on their childhood. My favorite of all the Al-Anon books so far!
