Daily meditations that provide healing insight with a lighthearted touch into the common struggles that codependents and those in Al-Anon frequently face.

“By the time I’d gotten to Al-Anon… people responded with ‘Thank God,’ or ‘It’s about time.’ I wasn’t a horrible person. It’s not like I had buried bodies under my floorboards. I was just a little dramatic and a tiny bit controlling.” –Misti B.

Most people in the throes of codependency’s problematic behaviors typically don’t see their plight as a laughing matter. And yet, judging by the peals of laughter often heard coming out of Twelve Step meeting rooms, many eventually do find the humor in their self-defeating thoughts and actions.

If You Leave Me, Can I Come with You? is full of refreshingly original meditations for each day of the year. Infusing her wisdom with self-revealing honesty and humor, Misti B. provides healing insight with a lighthearted touch into the common struggles that codependents and those in Al-Anon frequently face. Issues such as people pleasing, lack of boundaries, and perfectionism don’t have to overwhelm us if we work a solid Twelve Step program and learn not to take ourselves so seriously. Misti B. shows how to do both, delivering the right mix of support, inspiration, and healthy irreverence.

Industry Reviews

These 365 daily reflections by a recovering co-dependent provide a breath of fresh air in the recovery movement. Of course, addiction and recovery are very serious topics, but by adding a bit of humor to the mix, this book makes the process seem less formidable. There s no denial here. Misti B. keeps her eye squarely on the issues at hand. One of the things which she learned at Al-Anon, however, is that a little bit of humor helps the wisdom go down. Your customers will find plenty of both wisdom and self-reflective humor in the pages of this book.
