This is a book written from the heart to touch the heart. The
purpose is to give support and hope to women in recovery, to dispel
the fear of treatment, and to show how to deal with feelings
without drinking or using drugs in everyday life situations. While
the book primarily focuses on women, it is a helpful tool for
anyone living a 12-Step program. It is a journey of recovery from
awareness of the problem, through treatment and life after
treatment. Anyone who thinks alcohol may be a problem in their life
will identify with the women who share their stories, their
innermost thoughts and feelings. Most important, the book gives
suggestions for dealing with everyday situations as a sober,
healthy person. The theme is simple: I can't, He can, I think I'll
let Him. In the course of writing the book, the manuscript was
shared with several women in recovery and with a close friend who
thought she might have a problem with alcohol but who was too
frightened to go to A.A. Reading the first 60 pages gave her the
courage to go to her first A.A. meeting and she's been sober ever
since. So, before even going to press, the book was a success! Back
Cover: Desperate, out of hope, afraid of dying yet afraid to
live...covering up, making excuses, wanting to stop destructive
behavior...every person who has known despair can relate to this
book, but especially the woman alcoholic. It is written from the
heart to touch the heart, a journey of recovery, from awareness
through treatment and beyond, to everyday life situations. It's an
upbeat testimonial of women sharing their innermost fears, their
struggles, their triumphs, of staying sober no matter what happens.
It's a hand outstretched to anyone who wants a healthier life, who
wants to climb out of a black hole, to deal with feelings that have
been dead for years. It's for anyone who wants to live as a happy,
sober, aware, emotionally balanced person. The women interviewed
have "been there," and have conquered their fear and despair. They
generously share their struggles and stories of 12-Step recovery to
help others. "An excellent and comforting book that would benefit
every woman in recovery." Toby Rice Drews, Getting Them Sober books
