Living Sober

This book has great advice and tips for maintaining & thriving in sobriety -- whether you are a few days in and just trying to make it through the day, or a few years in and searching for ways to make sober life more fun and comfortable, this book has something to offer! The advice is simple and practical. Highly recommend!

I feel this book is an excellent companion to the 'Big Book" of AA. This book goes between the lines of the Big Book, in helping people new to recovery, and gives in sort of easy layman's terms what happens in early days of recovery. It is a simple guideline of subjects related to the Big Book, after the first 164 pages, you find stories written by folks who have been sober for a few years. It helps gain some strength & hope that the AA 12-step program does work.

Most people would agree that Alcoholics Anonymous has helped loads of people. As AA would say, over two million members to date are active in the fellowship. Living Sober provides some concepts which should be familiar to the alcoholic but serves as good reinforcement. The person who isn’t an alcoholic would learn how to support someone that was. Living Sober can provide some deeper insights into what would be good for the alcoholic life. I feel it may lack in some ways because years have passed since it has seen a revision. Nevertheless, it is a 5 Star book because of the content and it serves me well in my recovery to touch base on things here and there.

I bought it for my daughter. She opened it, said thanks, got a hug. Haven't seen it since. But she's not drinking either. So I don't know. its been over a year and a half.

Drinking isnt the wrong life style for everyone. If you're reading this book then you've come to know something about not always enjoying your current life style. Living Sober is a path that is relatable, frustrating and eye opening to the huge potential you have to offer others through gaining an awareness of your own worth.

My favorite recovery book because I didn't know how to live sober. This book offers tips on living clean and sober, methods AA members have used for not drinking.

Every person in recovery should have this book!!!! it’s one that you can read over and over again and go to certain sections when you need a little help- through the day, through events, social gatherings, or just when you’re by yourself in the moment!

I bought the eBook as a supplement for my e library. I take my device to mtgs and am able to carry many pounds of books with ease now. My 3rd sponsor used to chair a MTG that focused on this book, and I have fond memories of this book in early recovery. It has good advice for the newcomers and old timers. I can pull it up diuring times of crisis, and even enjoy an essay during times when I am not in crisis.

In recovery, I have found these subjects very thought provoking and would recommend this to anyone who really wants to know what comes next within the program. I’d also recommend it to anyone who may not be an alcoholic to better understand some of the gears in an alcoholics mind. Good luck either way, take it one day at a time.

This is one of the classics for learning to live a new lifestyle of sobriety. Suggestions for creating new habits and insights for handling possibly difficult situations.

This is one of the classics for learning to live a new lifestyle of sobriety. Suggestions for creating new habits and insights for handling possibly difficult situations.

Lot's of good information and helpful hints about helping a person stay sober. Not filled with a lot of jargon and an easy read.

Whatever the reason for sobriety, this is a practical little book with short and real suggestions about how to make it easier and more comfortable to live sober. Nuggets of wisdom from those who learnt the hard way, to those choosing this lifestyle today.

This is a great book for people who have alcohol addictions.. I purchased 2 of these books to help a friend. We both read it, and summarize the specific pages we read.

Awesome book. Exactly as described. The perfect addition to my growing literature collection!

Love buying a used book. This one had all the pages so I’m happy with that! Came fast and I’m enjoying the read. Thanks!

the book was processed and quickly delivered. book was in excellent condition, very fair price, had no issues. SHOP HERE!

A practical design for living sober. I needed it.

Highly recommend this book for new comers to the AA way of life, and old timers who might need to be reminded of "what it was like".

this is an indispensable book for people in recovery who are learning how to live life on life's terms without demon alcohol

I'm still in the process of reading this book, but I like what I'm reading so far. It tells about eating something sweet instead of reaching for a drink. I never ate sweets when drinking, but I sure do now! It talks about calling someone befor you take that first drink, it uses slogans of AA like"First Things First, and Easy Does It". Going to AA meetings is a must! And don't make up excuses for not going. This book is a must read book if you are an alcoholic.

Awesome book

Good book for clinicians and people in recovery alike!

Outlines personal examples & uses everyday language to identify with daily struggles addicts face. Great reference.

An excellent staple of recovery literature. Paginated nicely, and looks great on my Kindle.

Helpful for those just starting to get sober. Highly recommended for those trying to find some hints on how to stay sober.

Love this book. The Big Book gives the Spiritual material for living a sober life. This book provides the real-life applications and tips. Can be read as a speedy reference or cover to cover. I have it in Large Print and on my Kindle device.

nice

Best product

Nice to have on my phone

I am so thankful to the author for writing this book. I finally have information that does tell me "I'm not crazy" and informs me way beyond what I had hoped on the problem. I feel I can live with my situation now and have hopes for some life for myself without the constant absorption of someone else's situation. Plus I can be more understanding with the affected person because I have a better understanding of how things happen and happened.

A helpful guide

Great read, great value and great size. Thank you.

I've read a few negative articles about Alcoholics Anonymous, and I've yet to go to a meeting myself, but I have to say that this is helping me with my drinking "issues." If you have some problems with your drinking, you can open this book and feel as if it was a long letter from a long lost friend who knows the same problems with drinking as you. It helps.

Great book

Like other AA texts, this is a tad outdated but the message is the same. Great bathroom reader.

I love this book have read it twice so far lots of useful information for early recovery

If the book "Alcoholics Anonymous" is the "Road Map" to sobriety, "Living Sober" is the "Michelin Guide". A practical guidebook on what to do one day at a time to maintain sobriety.

Great learning tool - eye opening and helpful for when I volunteer

This book is full of straight forward suggestions for how to live one day at a time. Practical and simple.

Great for keeping your head in the right place. Relatable. Don't drink. Go to a meeting. When you are home alone with your thoughts AKA -"behind enemy lines" it's great to have some personal stories with actual "how to" coping skills for all of us to apply to our lives no matter how long we've been sober.

A++++

Living One Day at a Time in a world of insanity!

This is a very good, short book which describes the program, what constitutes an alcoholic, and how to proceed with recovery.

Practical, excellent, experienced suggestions for the newly sober. In my home group, we have a weekly beginners' meeting. We read a chapter a week and discuss with newcomers and "vintage" members. Large turnout implies this is a popular book/discussion.

Good read

Outstanding product! Just what I ordered and received it quickly!

A must have addition for any newcomer to AA and for anyone who wants to lead a sober life or is curious about sobriety. It's not always easy that's for sure. Living life without alcohol is way more difficult than simply not picking up a drink.

Page turner.

Love this book for practical insight. Brings smiles and out loud involuntary belly laughs. Am reading again and plan to read a small section each morning as I get on with my day.

Living Sober is a chart, if you will, for navigating and enjoying, delighting in a renewed and clean life that once again feels important. This book shows how to add spark and color and joy to life.

Book came in great condition m

Great read, great gift

After addicts/alcoholics/compulsive eaters put down their drug of choice, they are faced with problems of how to continue to stay sober, clean and abstinent, depending upon their program. This has many short articles by recovering alcoholics about living successfully and staying sober. But it can apply to any program.

I love this book I'm going on my forth year sober and been having some issues this book gave me exactly what was needed putting me back on the path ....thank you great book

Excellent product and fast shipping!

A must read especially if you are starting a journey of sobriety !! Buy the book .. it’s worth the money .. beneficial tool for beginning A.A.

Anyone who has ever been in Rehab, recovery, knows those first few seconds,minutes, hours, days, weeks and months are hard staying sober. This book is immensely helpful. When I came out of Rehab, I carried this book in my purse with my AA book whereever I went. I still refer to it if I need to. One Day at A Time....

Love this book. It's full of great, practical advice on navigating a life without alcohol.

Gratefully affordable.

Living with the 12-step tradition is enhanced by this book. I would recommend it to anyone who has an addiction, whether or not they attend a 12-step program. I liked the 12-step program I was in, but I finally stopped going because it was so facile. The 12-steps are not for everyone.

Really helpful book

In an effort to give back something to the Fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous, I devote a good deal of time to sponsoring newcomers. This sponsorship relationship is aimed -- primarily -- at helping the newcomer work the 12 Steps of the program. This excellent book -- on the shelves of many, many sponsors -- is aimed at helping the newcomer in those critical early days. Loaded with tips, suggestions, and just plain comment sense about how not to pick up that dangerous first drink. A wonderful assistant to the sponsor helping the newcomer. Gary P in Tampa, Florida (yeah, we have drunks here, too :-) )

Work it sober and it will work for you. This is a nice little addition to the literature that will keep you motivated.

This helped me with many practical tips and taught me how to overcome many limiting beliefs common among alcoholics. I also recommend 30 Day Sobriety Solution.

Great book, lots of tips for newcomers. A little dated, but still pertinent.

Excellent source on how to live your life sober & find sober things to do. I carry it with me everyday, in my purse, to remind me that life is still fun when sober.

This is a great book, I haven’t read in a long time. It was shipped quickly and is absolutely perfect

Gr8 book

This book is a great addition to AA literature.

Easy to read and a great instruction manual for the newly sober. Highly recommend.

Used for self improvement. This is a quality publication.

A gift to give to those who don't have a lot of money to spend. And when all they want is this, you know they are really serious about getting help.

This an excellent resource for people fighting a substance abuse. Especially helped members of my family in a twelve step program for alcohol abuse. It has practical, workable suggestions to help cope. I would recommend this book also for families of an addict.

Good book

An AA essential.

Very good book with lots of useful information that helped me.

I realized almost immediately that I was not alone. My symptoms were not mine alone. This book gave me new insight to living sober.

Great 4 Basics...1 day at a time.

Many can stop drinking and drugging but the hard part is staying stopped. Anyone entering into early sobriety comes to a point where they have been so deep in their addiction they have no idea what living without drugs or alcohol really is like. The stories outlined in this book are but a mere glimpse of how others in this situation are coping with their new-found sobriety. A must have book for anyone early in sobriety!

Besides big book it is one of the most essential texts I have seen especially for newly sober people. Some people say its too simplistic, but I disagree. Perfect refresher and good for new people.

ideal

I really needed this book. Perfect for those who are newly sober or thinking about getting sober. Very helpful stories and information

Great for step work

This book is a great resource, especially for newcomers. It provides practical information about living (not just getting!) sober in an easy, understandable manner.

Interesting reading

Love this book easy to read

No longer on my kindle app. Wants me to buy again.

If you are trying to live a sober life, free from alcohol, then this book can offer very practical ways to handle every day situations and challenges almost all recovering alcoholics eventually face. I highly recommend this book!

Very good

This was a gift for someone that had been sober for several years the. Fell off the wagon. It helped them! Thanks!

Terrific book for those in early recovery. Common topics I handled with simple and brief narrative.

Good book of ideas to slow down the cravings and get you thru the tough days

good book to read

Easy to understand ad helpful in reaching the goal of soberity

Excellent

12 1/2 years sober. What can I say?

Great how to book. Writes about daily challenges and struggles and how other member have dealt with those problems. Lot's of encouragement and insight..A great addition to your AA library!

Great book about actually living a sober life!

perfect for getting sober

Not a lot of talk about God, ego, defects of character, just basic common sense about this cunning, baffling, powerful Disease that is not my fault.

I am just starting recovery. This book, it says so much and I can really identify. The package arrived as expected.

Really helps you to understand underlying reasons and emotions that lead to picking up a drink. . How to cope with feelings and situations to prevent that first drink. A must read for people in recovery !

Great quick delivery and perfect new quality. Thanks!

If you are wanting recovery from alcoholism, this is a great way to do it! Excellent!

Good tool in the battle. Real down to earth advice and suggestions from one AA to another.

I gave it 4 stars because I find it very insightful, and inspiring. I love they way it enlightens some of the AA stigma of being a crutch and cult like. It is a great read.

Got for friend. Really. He needed it for his progress

The book got me thinking about the decisions that I mindlessly make that can lead to relapse

Excellent read for recovery.

Love this book

Living Sober is an excellent book for all who seek help in learning how to live once the substance has been put down. It is very helpful in addressing the many aspects of daily living without alcohol in a world that has those for whom it is not a problem. Day to day issues are well covered.

Exactly what my husband was looking for!

A classic must read for anyone who wants to stop drinking and start living. Even if you don't subscribe to the AA principles, this book is a basic step for every drinker wondering about how to go about serious recovery from alcoholism.

Been amazing for my AA journey!

WAY TOO EXPENSIVE.

I have been sober 20+ years and this is absolutely, positively my favorite book on staying sober and living well.

Great read for anyone who thinks they may have a problem with alcohol! All that needs to be said is give it a try, it cannot hurt.

Enjoy this book. Informative and clearly written.

Great tips for newcomers to recovery, one day at a time for a month.

This is an excellent recovery book. This product was delivered on time and was exactly what I expected. It is a wonderful product and I recommend it.
