POLL: Best alternative to 12 (goose) stepping

[Guest guest]

So what has worked best for you...or what do you think WILL work best for you if

you haven't tried it yet? You can select more than one answer.

----

Please select one or more of the following:

o SMART

o RR/REBT/AVRT etc. (Trimpey stuff in general)

o SOS

o Medicine (antidepressants, methadone, other psych meds)

o Don't need any therapy or treatment, I can be sober on my own.

o Don't need therapy or treatment, I don't need to remain sober all the time.

o I'm still in AA or NA and I'm going to stay there, and you people are all

in denial.

o I'm going to stick with AA/NA although I believe a lot of the criticisms of

it are valid out of a need for the social contact of the herd.

by going to the following Web form:

/vote?id=943067137325 & listname=12-step-free

Thank you!

Hi -

I have a concern with this form in it uses the " S " word - Sober - which

may be a mistake, as it has been made, by AA, to imply " abstinent " .

By rights of course, its exactly what you should use, as staying

*sober* , though not necessarily abstinent, is of course what matters.

You might like to add " I drink, but stay sober " as an additional item.

Best,

Pete
