Recovery Literature

Many PIR meetings will use The Pagan in Recovery by Deirdre Hebert, in addition to pulling from other 12-step literature as inspiration. This page has links to The Pagan in Recovery, and a list of 12-step literature from other fellowships.

TRADITIONAL LITERATURE FOR ANONYMOUS 12-STEP FELLOWSHIPS

Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA)

 

ACA is a 12 Step program that focuses on emotional sobriety.  

We were all profoundly affected by the dysfunction in our families of origin, whether alcohol was present in the home or not.  Consequently, we developed a set of “laundry list” traits that helped us survive that experience.  These traits may have been adaptive at the time, but have now come to substantially disrupt our lives.

Co-Dependents Anonymous

Co-Dependents Anonymous is a Fellowship of people whose common purpose is to develop healthy relationships. The only requirement for membership is a desire for healthy and loving relationships.

Sex Addicts Anonymous

 Our primary purpose is to stop our addictive sexual behavior and to help others recover from sexual addiction. Recovery was possible for most of us only when we accepted the fact that we were powerless over our addictive sexual behavior and that we were incapable of changing without help from outside ourselves.
