Resources for our recovery

There are so many helpful resources available to us on our sober journeys. I wanted to share this list for those who are interested in non traditional resources.

Anyone have suggestions for a good book to read?

I’m enjoying reading all the sobriety books I can find. I just finished “Drinking: a love story” by Carolyn Knapp. I highly recommend it, she offers incredible insight and she explained myself and the circumstances I have created through drinking to me, if that makes sense. I’ve read Russell Brand, it was ok. Sarah Hepolas book was great. I tried to read “A Happier Hour” but couldn’t get into it. Just looking for some more suggestions! Thanks all!

Sobriety reading

So this is not my first attempt to cut alcohol from my life. Earlier this year, after a really bad night of drinking, I stopped for 2 months. My head was clear and I was actually happy being sober, but I still craved a drink, especially in social settings. I found that reading helped me a lot. I read This Naked Mind, A Happier Hour, and The Sober Revolution. I’m looking for suggestions for more books as I set out on this journey towards sobriety and taking back my life.
