I know that I have ran across reading material here and there but really haven't paid attention. I would LOVE suggestions for reading material. Can I order the NA manual from amazon? I tried to sign up for there website but I was blocked. I think my work IP is not allowing.
Could be christian based. Or not.
And could be family/kids based. Something that I can help my kids.
TIA

One of my favorite Christian books has become Unglued - Making Wise Choices in the Midst of Raw Emotions by Lysa TerKeurst. Perfect book for those who like to stuff or explode. I continued to find myself in everything she wrote.

I've been looking for reading material as well. Specifically on being involved in a relationship with a recovering addict. Does such a thing exist? Haven't had much luck finding anything.

The Language of Letting Go by Melody Beattie (who also wrote Codependent No More). It's a daily read/reflection and I find if I read a blip in the morning it resonates throughout the day. I think if you go on Amazon you can read a few pages out of whatever you find before you buy. Please let us know if you run across something good as well!

I'm waiting for my copy of Codependent No More -- thought it was coming the other day, but won't actually be until later this week.

I also am getting A LOT out of reading the AA Big Book and the Al Anon book Paths To Recovery.
