Plenty of them at the library and book stores. Also lookup the local Al Anon chapter in your town. This is the division of Alcoholics Anonymous that is for the “family members” of alcoholics and drug abusers. Or their friends. Meetings several times a week and anybody can attend if kept confidential what is said there.
