Videos on Alcoholism?

Are there any videotapes (DVD's, VHS's) available for alcoholics?

My AB doesn't like to read, but he loves to watch TV and videos. Are there any out there that speak on alcoholism, the dysfunctional family and secrets, the shame that keeps them in their cycle and then----------------> forgiveness?


If there is, please point me in the right direction as to how to get these and where.

Thank you in advance!

I am not sure about videos, but books on tape might be an idea too.

Hi Girlfriend,

I've not heard of any such videos either, but there are loads of great books.

"My Name is Bill W." is going to be on TV this coming Saturday. I've not seen it yet, but have heard great things about it.

Here's a list:

Chalk Talk with Father Martin: this is an amazing video. Try checking it out at the library, though, because it's expensive. You can also get an audiotape of it on Amazon.com but I'm not sure it would have the same impact.

Claudia Black's audiotapes on alcoholism and adult children are excellent.

Loosening the Grip (it's a book but it may be on audio)

Movie: Clean and Sober w/Michael Keaton
