I go to AA and find it helpful, but I struggle with the higher power concept. I'm reading a really good book, that's helping me a lot. It's called "Waiting A Nonbeliever's Higher Power". It's by Myra Hornbacher who is a great writer, and it tells the story of how she came from a place of non belief to having a faith of her own. It's really well written and it's really resonating with me.
It's published by Hazelden.
She also wrote "Sane" Which is the best book I've ever read about dealing with mental illness and addiction through the 12 steps.
