Open Thread #5

Posted on February 24, 2006 in Addictions Open Thread

Thank you to everyone who participated in Sunday’s open thread about ADHD. We had a diversity of views and that is a good thing. This thread shall entertain opinions about Twelve Step Programs. What have been your experiences? (Details! I love details!) What about encounters with 12-Steppers? Can they be as bad as Scientologists at times when they start on you about relying on medication to stabilize your moods or restore your sense of reality? Have the 12 Steps saved your life or did something entirely different do the job? Ask a question I have missed and answer it! Or talk about something else!
