  • Two of the best AA speakers in a GREAT workshop! Bob and Sandy do such a magnificent job at summing up the program! This workshop is packed full of awesome stuff! Sit back, relax, and enjoy these AWESOME sessions!
    Addiction treatment WORKS! The Twelve Step Model has been utilized as a treatment for alcohol abuse and alcoholism since 1935. It is extremely important to know that help IS out there and addiction recovery is possible. If you are battling alcoholism, drug addiction, addiction or any other form of addictive behavior, there are people who know EXACTLY what it is like!
    You can find out more at: www.aa.org - Alcoholics Anonymous Official Site - As should be blatantly obvious, we are in no way affiliated with them or any other Twelve Step Program. We are just looking to provide hope to those suffering from alcoholism or addiction.
    It is important to note there are several ways for one to address his or her alcohol abuse treatment. Substance abuse is a very serious condition and has become an epidemic in today's world. Many people suffering with substance abuse need treatment, such as inpatient stays, rehab, or counseling. The importance and purpose of this video, and all our other videos, is to show that recovery IS possible and to give hope to those who are struggling with alcohol and drug addiction issues. Help IS out there!
    From the book Alcoholics Anonymous: "In spite of the great increase in the size and span of this Fellowship, at its core it remains simple and personal. Each day, somewhere in the world, recovery begins when one alcoholic talks with another alcoholic, sharing experience, strength, and hope."

      Please don't attend meets for what you can "get." Go there prepared to "give." You'll be infinitely happier.

      The tapes are like the best of AA with zero fluff or BS. You'll definitely get more out of them than meetings in terms of knowledge about the program, but it's apples to oranges comparing them to the fellowship.

      I know what you mean. Some meetings it isn't clear what AA's mission is. Also there's some that use the podium to speak another language. Their other language is called "victimease". Most of them are dry and not working the steps.
      Good meetings have enthusiasm about working the steps. They make you want to read the Big Book. The members are a fellowship, always lending a hand or an ear to each other. They don't talk bad about the newcomers because they see themselves in them. Quite the contrary they seek them out to help them get in the book and steps. When asked how they are doing they don't say "just hanging in there". They talk about living and the joy Of helping others.

    Speaker from 148: to 2 something is a fantastic description of step 4. Really if you are like me 5 years clean (i do NA) and have compulsive habits much like drug addiction this is a must listen.

      Does that make you special or different? We are all the same as far as alcoholism is concerned. So tuck in your shirt because your insanity is showing.

    • @BirdShutterbug
      @BirdShutterbug Před rokem +1

      I have dependence on a God of my understanding, which doesn't involve going to church. That doesn't make my sobriety any less or better than those who do attend church. Practice spirituality how ever you choose but AA doesn't put demands on how each person decides to do that.

    Physical is 10% of the drinking problem. If you don't conquer the physical issue you won't get to the rest of the problem which is mental, emotional and spiritual; not necessarily in that order.

    • @lindacarlton3154
      @lindacarlton3154 Před 2 lety +4

      For me to "conquer" the 10% physical, I have to take the steps which means to me surrendering to the process of recovery. Step 1-powerless and unmanageable. That's the only step I have to take 100%. Page 33 of the BB..."there must be no reservation of any kind, nor any lurking notion that someday we will be immune to alcohol". The rest centers in my mind. But once the steps are taken and we have a spiritual awakening as the result of the steps we straighten out mentally. Thank God we have a solution! 🤗❤🙏
