Recognizing Infantile Traits in Adults

Father Bill continues a series centered on Dr. Harry Tiebout, the first psychiatrist to recognize why AA worked while so many other methods (including his own) had failed. Tiebout also treated Bill Wilson for his depression and later served as an AA Trustee. The series uses Hazelden’s book: Harry Tiebout: The Collected Writings as a source and, where available, adds pdf articles in the Show Notes. In this episode Fr. Bill explores Tiebout’s classic article: Ego Factors in Surrender. If you want to know what’s going on when we’re feeling restless, irritable or filled with discontent, you won’t want to miss this episode. A free pdf version is available.
