The Promises


  • We will discover our real identities by loving and accepting ourselves.
  • Our self-esteem will increase as we give ourselves approval on a daily basis.
  • Fear of authority figures and the need to "people-please" will leave us.
  • Our ability to share intimacy will grow inside us.
    As we face our abandonment issues, we will be attracted by strengths and become more tolerant of weaknesses.
  • We will enjoy feeling stable, peaceful, and financially secure.
  • We will learn how to play and have fun in our lives.
  • We will chose to love people who can love and be responsible
    for themselves.
  • Healthy boundaries and limits will become easier for us to set.
  • Fears of failures and success will leave us, as we intuitively make healthier choices.
  • With help from our ACA support group, we will slowly release our dysfunctional behaviors.
  • Gradually, with our Higher Power's help, we learn to expect the best and get it.


"We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness. We will not forget the past nor wish to shut the door on it. We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace. No matter how far down the scale we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others.

That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear. We will lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in our fellows. Self-seeking will slip away. Our whole attitude and out-look upon life will change. Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us. We will intuitively know how to handle situations which used to baffle us.

We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves".
