Freedom From Our Addictions - Russell Brand
28 November. 2019

I read this about two years after I stopped drinking. I still like to read books of this kind even now, I think it helps remind me how far I’ve come. It has a focus on the 12 Steps, but as I didn’t go to AA, (I had another support group), it wasn’t so relevant in this way to me. What was nice though, was Russell’s very honest approach to his addiction and the way he put his own interpretation of the 12 Steps into words. Again, I really think that the more I read about other people in a similar situation overcoming their addictions, the more it made me feel less like a freak and more like I could do it too.
