GREAT stuff from Bob D. at an AA speaker meeting earlier this year! He is one of my favorite AA speakers and in this tape he shares on the topic of the first two steps. I LOVE the stories he tells as he recounts his personal experience, and also uses vivid and powerful metaphors to describe suffering from alcoholism. He then goes on to talk about the second step, and how he "Came to believe a Power Greater Than Himself could restore him to sanity." AWESOME share on steps one and two! Enjoy! :)
This tape is part of a workshop. You can listen to it in its entirety here: • Bob D. - AA Speaker - ...
The Twelve Step Model has been utilized as a treatment for alcohol abuse and alcoholism since 1935. It is extremely important to know that help IS out there and addiction recovery is possible. If you are battling alcoholism, drug addiction, addiction or any other form of addictive behavior, there are people who know EXACTLY what it is like!
You can find out more at: www.aa.org - Alcoholics Anonymous Official Site - As should be blatantly obvious, we are in no way affiliated with them or any other Twelve Step Program. We are just looking to provide hope to those suffering from alcoholism or addiction.
It is important to note there are several ways for one to address his or her alcohol abuse treatment. Substance abuse is a very serious condition and has become an epidemic in today's world. Many people suffering with substance abuse need treatment, such as inpatient stays, rehab, or counseling. The importance and purpose of this video, and all our other videos, is to show that recovery IS possible and to give hope to those who are struggling with alcohol and drug addiction issues. Help IS out there!
From the book Alcoholics Anonymous: "In spite of the great increase in the size and span of this Fellowship, at its core it remains simple and personal. Each day, somewhere in the world, recovery begins when one alcoholic talks with another alcoholic, sharing experience, strength, and hope."
Every tape is carefully selected to ensure its quality and that it is entertaining to listen to. You can trust Odomtology 12-Step Recovery Media to be synonymous with the best online recovery material out there. QUALITY is our mission. This is why we have such a large and engaged following. Have fun and enjoy listening to the amazing, wonderful, and powerful recovery speakers!

I am Margot and I am an alcoholic. I love this message, it took me eleven years to surrender to Step One and get it completely. I celebrate my one year on Feb. 25 2015, If you are here, and struggling, keep coming back. It works. A simple program, but don't confuse simple with easy. Love to all my friends in the fellowship and thank you to AA and my HP for my sobriety. My medallion says one word WE. Without the W E I couldn't do it.

The interesting thing about this video is that he described me so well as a drinker, quitting jobs, putting alcohol ahead of priorities, family, friends, etc. But what I realized also was that many of my "friends" are in the advanced stages of alcoholism as well and this constant cycle and ruining their own friendships one by one. I have also realized that many of my "friends" were never friends, just drinking buddies. I started seeing me separate myself from them while drinking and them separating themselves from me probably for the same reasons.

Love Bob D's talks. His experience strength and hope have helped me to remain sober and begin on my own path to becoming a useful servant of God. I can really identify with Bob. We are very similar creatures . I recently had the opportunity to listen to him in person a couple of weeks ago in Indian Rocks Beach Florida. What a wonderful experience. Keep rowing the boat Bob!
