The AA Big Book: To Read or Not to Read
This video covers the idea of getting sober in Alcoholics Anonymous without getting into the AA Big Book. The Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book is considered "required" reading in the program...but is it? I go over the ideas behind reading the AA Big Book and doing the 12 Steps of AA.

The step work in Alcoholics Anonymous allows us to go back in time and repair the things we may have thought were out of our control. With the use of AA's Time Machine, we can go back and set things straight, allowing us to carry on with productive and fulfilling lives.

Am I an Alcoholic? How to Know for Sure.
The meetings are basically church for people who dont go to church.serve, fellowship etc they lack the TRUE GOD though. Christ ain't a light-bulb!
I'm a recovered alcoholic, and was never a heavy drinker Make as much coffee in service ain't going to get you spiritually well, keep coming back no what is says is these are the steps we took
What about the real alcoholic… I’m on my second soberity and looking back at my first I didn’t do the work and it didn’t work for me . Then starting my second soberity worked all twelve and I have now landed recovered from a hopeless state of mind and body and get to live spiritually… thank god
Boston John is like a uncle to me in AA😮 I look up to him for advice in life and sobriety he's never steered me wrong😮 you can absolutely rely on anything he says please like And subscribe all his videos so he keeps helping people😮 thank you so much for all of your help and your humility I love you😮 from Thaddeus
You can absolutely rely on anything this guy says I consider him like blood family he has helped me considerably in AA😮 very humble man😮 we need more people like this in Alcoholics Anonymous😮 Please Subscribe and like all his videos😮 from your nephew Thaddeus I love you bro😮 thank you😢
They love fresh meat. It feeds their sense of purpose. I did find solace in the meetings for the 1st couple of years, however, I never bought the promise that if I didn't do it their way, i would get drunk. 90% of them act one way inside the rooms and another way outside the rooms. Careful who you share with and what you share. Anonymity has gone out the window. They talk, gossip and judge. I recommend outside therapy with a 3rd party. I have 25 years and quit going years ago when I realized my sponsor was a total narcissist.
It really is 2 different world's, the AA/NA World and the Real World. 99% of the members talk a good game but look at their real live's and you see another game.
Its a cult and anti-God!
Oh my god! You’re telling my current story. I needed to hear this.
Thank you for doing this brother. May you be blessed.
My original East Lansing home group expected new guys to get 3 sponsors and call three on daily basis until advised otherwise. Don W. was my stern disciplinarian sponsor, Jerry S. was my 'slow down and talk about your feelings' sponsor, David was my east coast intellectual, actively recovering from narcissism sponsor.
Going on 16 years sober - Ive been doing this, for me I call it a grudge list and it really helps!!!
What's the best printing technology to print face or picture of persons onto a T-shirt?
Cult
Im going to my first meeting this Saturday in uk
Was excited then he mentioned praying. I'm out. I am also glad it is working for so many people.
Most of the fellows in AA are not Alcoholics
Bc of the CRAZY PEOPLE lol
AA is a cult.
Sober 17 years and counting, this is one of the best videos I’ve seen. Going to do a mini fourth and fifth with my Sponsor tomorrow. Thank you for stepping up.
Where did you get the jig?
SERVICE TRAP???? When a person has TAKEN AND TAKEN from everyone in their lives while their drinking, you think arranging some chairs, or making coffee or staying after the meeting to clean up is too much to ask? What about developing humility and learning to not be a selfish bast*^%rd? You are so wrong, you are a danger to alcoholics!
You Boston Jon are misleading a ton of alcoholics that may die in the streets!
YES! YOU SHOULD READ THIS BOOK AND THE BIBLE! Unless you want to remain in spiritual darkness.
Bible first?
REASON NO. 1 DISHONESTY (Read chapter 4 do your inventory and be HONEST!!!!!)
You can make gallons of coffee it recover you, need to do the 12 steps proposed in the Alcoholics anonymous book what so ever
What software do you use for the uv printer specifically for coins?
I made a video as a testimony how Alcoholics Anonymous is a cult 💫✨
God Bless U!! Yes Thank U For Yur Honesty & This Video & Humbleness in Shareing it! ❤❤
Sometimes Other People Are Scarred Of Us, when trying to shake our hand or approaching us, 😅Lol We make people nervous maybe, but regarless how are We Gonna React? ❤❤😉
I attend AA, but I don’t read the book. I have a “sponcer “, but haven’t done the steps. Not going to. I’ve been sober for almost 5 months now.

OMG this makes me cringe I've seen more drunks and relapsers at AA meetings the reason i quit going and still sober
Thank you for the info. Was considering this. Will watch a video of you making a colored shirt.
Cuz AA don't work
The reason Number 1 the program of AA fails is BIG FARMA. The legal drugs that "some" people need is way OVERPRESCRIBED.
The Sinclair method worked for me. Sobriety and abstinence was not the prize, regaining control of my drinking was. I lost my cravings for beer and not drinking is an easy choice.
No wonder many people leave this cult which is a religious programme
Nothing religious about it. If you were at a religious AA meeting then they were not running it like Dr. Bob and Bill W designed.
Service is only 1 of 3 legacy. Service recovery and unity, should in my opinion always be equal. Tks and have a good day. Its not perfect but it is what it is.
Sometimes feel like meetings have a similar feel to a networking event (go to them and everyone is trying to do the same thing) feel like you get pulled in all directions.. and then end up being rude by not actually getting to listen to anyone well. I end up feeling rude.. its bizarre. Anger (at 13mnths) Yep and carefully nursed resentments yep.. they are nicely rounded off.. just not enough to drop out of the bag.. No. 10 there would be universal.. TAX is just a pain. but finding a good and reasonable accountant is super hard too a good one should point things out too.. Really identify with a lot there as a business owner nice work John
It doesn't help especially when there's allways a weatherspoons right next to the AA mettings. I've been on these AA mettings all myife and from my own personal opinion those courses drain the shit out of me so it's straight in the pub after lol 😂🤣
Tomorrow I'm going to my first meeting, I'm very scared. I hope it goes smoothly.. i think I could benefit from a meeting but idk
Perfect. Thank you
Thank you for posting this!
Four hundred and five days sans alcohol and more than two years of living a drug free life. Here's the deal. ALOCHOL is a dangerous and deadly drug. It abolishes relationships with loved ones and slowy makes you a villain. I received my comeuppance and decided to stop the nonsense by quitting cold turkey. I managed to work my ass off and save my residuals to venture out on a.... Twenty-one day, two continent, two country, twelve city, solo backpacking misadventure which took my dumb ass to Spain (Barcelona, Madrid, Malaga, Tarifa & Sevilla) & Morocco (Tanger, Chefchaouen, Fes, Merzouga/ Sahara Desert, Marrakech, Casablanca and Rabat). It was an educational and learning experience plus, It was full of awe inspiring moments. To all my fellow addicts, I Love You All Have faith, believe in yourself, never give up and enjoy God's greatest gift... Life.
'You need disclose nothing about yourself. You can retain as much anonymity as you wish. That is one of the reasons we call ourselves Alcoholics Anonymous.' Information for newcomers.
