  • Starting in rehab, or when we get in to the rooms, many need help in grasping what it is like to have the amount of hope and gratitude some of the members of AA have. In this AWESOME tape, Bob D. shares about why he is a grateful alcoholic in his simple, heart-felt, and insightful style. Bob has such a gift at communicating and he is extremely good at relaying his introspection. Gratitude is sometimes not the most favorite topic in AA to say the least, but this talk will definitely make you think in new ways about it. Thanks to the Program, and people like Bob, I can truly say, today I am a grateful alcoholic!
    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."

    Great stuff, although having someone who has been sober a long time in the program is not a pre-requisite to getting sober. The book has the program in it. A relationship with God is down to the individual. The desire to find god must come from within. 👍🏼. Dr Bob was carrying the message to hospital patients immediately.
