The way this is usually done is you get a notebook and a pen, and you list every person, place, or institution that you have a resentment towards.

A lot of people don't really know what a resentment means.

It's, think it's French, like feel again, right/ Sentiments is French, or sentir is, is to feel, re, again.

... right? That's the nickname, and that stems from the fact that when it was first published in 1939, they were deliberate with using extremely big font and the highest quality paper.

The book cost back then equivalent of $54 today, so, um, it's, you know, 450, 500 pages.

The book talks a lot about what it truly is to be an alcoholic.

The first chapter is Bill's story, and he describes how his life fell apart, and he kept going back to using alcohol, and it got worse and worse.

And then there's a chapter called More About Alcoholism, and when you read this with an open mind, you'll read these stories and you're like, "Wow, this sounds exactly like what's happening to me," or, "What has happened to me." And then you go to a meeting, and you hear people share their stories.

People share their stories.
