No Matter What

Dealing With Adversity in Sobriety

All recovering alcoholics have had to deal with adversity throughout sobriety…a serious illness, an ugly divorce, the death of a child, the loss of a house to fire or to the bank.   Despite the fear, pain or self-pity we are in when these tragedies strike, drinking is not an option.  The stories in this book show how AA members use the tools of the program and embrace the Fellowship to deal with tough issues.

From Grapevine, the international journal of Alcoholics Anonymous, inspirational stories about living with and overcoming adversity.  It’s important to remember that some things are in our power to change; others we have to simply accept.   The men and women whose powerful essays were selected for this collection follow both of those paths.

No Matter What  offers comfort and hope to readers – whatever trials they face.
