Other free downloadable literature is also available on the coda.org website.

Where Do I Begin?

At first I may see overwhelming as you begin to explore your spiritual journey of recovery - such as what books and pamphlets provide the best tools. Friends and therapists may recommend reading about "codependency" though many may be helpful, not all books on the subject are approved by Co-Dependent Anonymous.

Here are several recommendations to consider in your journey to building better relationships and a happier life:
