The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. It works much better when you read it with a sponsor.

Welcome Charlotte 
I’m not a huge reader, so that’s why I like this book. Start to finish in less than an hour. It showed me how much I’ve been brainwashed by alcohol, and now I don’t fall for it’s lies.

I was a heavy drinker for 20 years. Meetings work for some people they did not work for me. What worked was prayer and reading the bible daily. I understand a lot of people aren’t into that it’s just what worked for me. I asked for help and Jesus answered.
