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.
