This talk just saved my life. I was translating this a while ago and stopped and never went back to it... and just this evening as I was feeling seperated, lonely and depressed but couldn't figure out what's happening to me... wanting to disappear and die feeling that the program has failed me - I suddenly decided to listen to this talk again and poof...I'm rethinking step 3... wanting to keep on searching for Him... yearning for a real sense of purpose. Also I finished the translation... Thank you... Mysterious power of the universe.

Bob D’s talks have helped me work my program in so many ways, revealing a little more to each time I listen, letting me humble myself and be a little more vulnerable (even just with myself) a little each time, and this is my go to place between meetings and being with people in the program. Forever grateful for each of you.

Any spiritually broken human needs to hear this. Surrendering piece by piece.

Kevin Edens

@J9ATX I totally agree. AA is a gift for recovery from addiction. I like the definition of addiction: "Doing something repeatedly despite its overall negative consequences". I've done all kinds of things repeatedly despite their negative consequences. My behaviors have made my life unmanageable. I have felt powerless and have had the need for God to restore me to sanity. The 12 steps are a gift that I thank God for.

J9ATX

Amen. The Twelve Steps are a Design for Living that absolutely EVERYONE could benefit from.

I love how he talks about easy it is for the ego to resurrect itself. That we could go from totally desperate, “God help me,” to “hey, I got this all figured out, but hey, look at that loser over there.” Surrender to kill the ego, great message.

"Everything you've been using to fix yourself has worn off and there's nothing left." Boy can I relate! I got sober at the age of 20 and, since then, I've hit many emotional bottoms in recovery. I'm so happy to see these videos on here. I've just started recording recovery content for youtube myself. I've haven't considered putting one of my leads on here like this. Maybe I should.

How are you doing Big???
I hope you are getting well
it's hard for us to go through early Sobriety
but it is so worth it.. you had 15 months which is good so you know what it feels like..
You CAN do it,, millions of us are sober today
through AA.. God bless you one day at a time...

Today I was feeling really miserable (again), and suddenly I missed Bob's voice. He calms me down.

ducktape

4y↑5

Amazing how in need you are guided to the exact thing which speaks directly to your problem...Thank you God. I'm 45 days sober, dragging my feet on working on step 4, and having just 2 days ago celebrating my first birthday at my home groups birthday night where we celebrated over 150 years of sobriety and 2 30 day birthdays.
Last night at work I felt a strange strong craving...as if there was a litteral hole in me. I prayed and resumed work. Today it's on me again and it's what is described in this talk....the self will reasserting in my life. I'm going to call my sponsor then make a meeting...I'll be there Early so I can work on my 4th step In a safe and peaceful place...I'm cleaning a rental at the moment and in the fridge is a 12 pack left behind...just staring at me.
Thankfully it just going to stay there.
Thank you God for my sobriety.

Bill LeeMaster

If/when those "feelings" arise, I've found it very beneficial to do a mini-4th Step--in WRITING and then proceed to the 5th-9th Steps. Eventually those feelings will cease having power over your thoughts/actions...they may return but not with the power they once had. Try it!

Deirdre T

Really inspirational.
I am humble that I can be a part of this and use this for my recovery. You create so much awareness within me and the things my ego does to me.
Every time I listen to a tape of you Bob I feel instantly closer to my higher power.
I asked God for help again to truly surrender and set my ego aside, next day this tape pops up.
Thank you and thank God

@Corey Ward
Hello corey my name is Brian and I'm definitely an alcoholic. I hope that you are doing OK and if you're still recovering until you're
recovered. If this makes any sense..I try to get to as many meetings a week if I can and when I can't make it I spend time with some of AA literature and these speaker tapes are a big help. I usually get one with some humour
Hey if I'm sober I may as well have a laugh I didn't laugh much when I was a drunk
There really wasn't much to laugh at. I will never forget the years of sadness but i don't think about the past much anymore I have a new beautiful life now and I never thought life was worth living.
Anyway stay strong and if you are doing well let us know. And keep on keeping on.

This is my favorite share of all time. However there is pain. Real pain not from resistance. I lost my twin sister to an overdose. That’s real pain and I need to accept it and feel it. Holding any person to a standard of assuming all forms of pain come from resisting reality is too high a standard.
However in most situations this is true.

There are others who carry great messages about alcoholism: try listening to Peter Marinelli, Keith Lewis, Scott Lee, Chris Raymer, Sandy Beach or Joe Hawk.

I find this speaker amazing. He really knows what he is talking. The mind of an alcoholic when not drinking is restless irritable and discontent. Doctors know very little about how an alcoholic in recovery gets better. I have been told one do not pick that first drink no matter what, attend meetings, join a group, get into service, find a sponsor.

Paul D Haynes

Why would a doctor know? Unless its an alcoholic doctor. As I heard this speaker say, "a degree" thermometers have degrees and I know where they get stuck" 🙂.....

@J G You might not be a type three alcoholic pal - I have friends who took heroin for years as soon as they got detoxed their life changed they didn’t need meetings - Got jobs, can even drink. I am a chronic addict / Alcoholic. Drugs and alcohol aren’t my problem - I am.

@J G Careful dude. What you're saying works for some but the ones it doesn't work for? They could die. We stick with what works.

Blackpool Reppin

I came in and out the rooms for ten years. Could not concede to my innermost self I was alcoholic. I was surrenderd by the bottle and from that very moment it was the foundation of my recovery i suddenly became willing to take actions that i never was before. Identify with bob so much

Thank you! I have heard this one before. This time it really hit me hard in an amazing way. Thank You for letting me know I'm NOT the only one. I am surrounded by friends with great jobs and sober I keep blowing through jobs and Cant seem to handle the stress also Cant seem to find an employer to honor my meeting times a and availability agreed upon at interviews. I keep finding myself trying to tell God. Well God I need a job & youre not doing anything so I'm gonna go get one. Then an ah ha moment sweeps over me again. No WONDER THIS JOB SUCKS AND THEY'RE NOT HONORING MY AVAILABILITY. Once again Dawn took her will back WITHOUT REALIZING IT. EVEN THOUGH if I retrace my steps( hind sight 20/20) I can pin point the exact moment when I said God I hope you dont get mad at me...but.. I'm going to go get a job. Lol Thank You for this. I Love you BROTHER ❤❤❤❤🌠🌠🌠🌠

Faith without works is dead. I hope your well Dawn. Love and prays to you.

Bob and and the program of AA is helping me in ways I never wanted to be helped, thank you God for your grace and another day

Stone Cold

Goosebumps from the first 30 seconds. King Alcohol is exactly that.....

I like to say "if alcohol doesn't kill you, it will make you wish you were dead". And then you may drink more....

Alcoholism is not fun, but when I'm in my illness I don't understand or know it. It is cunning, baffling, POWERFUL. And my sponsor always tells me alcohol wants to kill me.

There is a way out.

Excellent lead. Although your interpretation of the account of Adam and Eve is with error, you have a powerful story and it was just what I needed this evening.

Simone, “The most satisfactory years of your existence lie ahead”. (Page 152 of the Big Book) Absolutely true! My mantra is simple, “Live in the problem, or live in the solution”. Best wishes to you!

@Sue DeSimone hard to recognize you can't do all the things you would like to do for your daughter. It's hard to look at your attachments. Things are made harder when you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
