Join Joe McDonald as he reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey. In this Step 3 AA session, Joe dives into the concept of the “real alcoholic,” shedding light on the crucial distinctions between moderate drinkers, hard drinkers, and those who are powerless over alcohol. The real alcoholic, as described in the Big Book, loses all control over their consumption once they start drinking, marking a point of no return. This realization, though difficult, is key to accepting one’s condition and embarking on a path to recovery.

Joe explains that understanding the difference between a hard drinker and a real alcoholic is essential for long-term sobriety. By recognizing this, individuals can begin to confront their drinking habits and the uncontrollable nature of their addiction. For those who feel powerless over alcohol, this awareness is the first step toward embracing recovery and the transformative power of the program.
