If you go to the library, I’m quite sure you will find all you need. If not try a bookstore. If you are willing to go to an AA meeting, you could buy some books there at cost and sometimes others will help you if you are a little short. I have been sober for almost 5 years now. I spent 2 years in the program and for 3 years I have been doing this on my own. I got my basics and know where they are, should I need to go back to a meeting. I don’t want to dissuade you from going by any means, this is your choice. I had to go and knew I could not get or stay sober without the foundation that AA and my sponsor had given to me. Hope this helps and I certainly wish you well.
