12 Steps to a Healthier Life!

I am a 23 year old adult child of abuse and addiction of all types...recently I have looked to many different outlets for help...including addiction myself- when I realized that I was starting on the same path (Thank God I caught it early!) I picked this book up at the store. I started reading it a little while ago and since then have a whole new look on life...I am now getting the help I need and seeking some friends with the same issues that I have so we can lean on eachother if needed. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is feeling lost and has had the same or maybe (God forbid!) worse experiences than I have had.

A very helpful guide

I have found this book to be a very helpful guide to working the 12 steps. It gives exact information and formats to go about the difficult but important work of following the 12 steps. For those of us who want to do the work but are not sure how, this is the workbook to use.

1st book that focuses on the 12 Steps for Adult Children

The 12 Steps for Adult Children is a unique tool for the millions of adults who suffer the effects of having grown up in a dysfunctional environment.Children raised in addictive & other dysfunctional families rarely develop a sense of personal security or genuine feelings of self-worth. Seldom feeling safe & loved as children, they are handicapped in their ability to feel whole or to give & receive love as adults.Based upon the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, this book offers a specific format for moving from isolation & denial to acceptance & competence in dealing with feelings of anger, guilt, fear & despair. By releasing the past & opening up to the present, individuals begin to develop confidence in the realization that they are valuable & worthwhile persons.
