A Psychiatrist's Appreciation of Alcoholics Anonymous
The AA program enables the withdrawn alcoholic to trust the mental therapist, thus hastening a return to sobriety--and sanity.
An understanding and appreciation of Alcoholics Anonymous is necessary for those who love and live with and wish to help the alcoholic. By our observing what AA does for him, and how, we can learn what he needs from us and, more importantly, what he does not need and cannot take from us. I have a deep and abiding conviction about Alcoholics Anonymous--that it is theoretically sound and reasonable and that it is practically and impressively successful.
