How is alcoholism a disease of extremes? What does the term "Adult Child" mean? Am I trapped in a compulsive need? In Episode 4 (part 1 of 2), Jan talks about her favorite section, pages 14-15, from the book "From Survival to Recovery: Growing Up in an Alcoholic Home" (B-21). She shares which qualities of an Adult Child of an alcoholic that she identifies with, what a literature study group is like, and how this book can touch members of Alcoholics Anonymous too!
QUOTABLE MOMENT FROM JAN:
- "...you’ve got to feel it, before you can heal it and that’s the really good part of this book. It really helps you to dig in!"
