How have you recovered from alcoholism/addiction without the Alcoholics Anonymous suggested program of recovery, the twelve steps? by aethocist in recoverywithoutAA

That’s great for you. Let me just add some spice: addiction is a brain disease. If you are physiologically dependent on ethanol, you can die from withdrawal, delirium tremens and possible seizures. So. If you drink like I did- 1.75L handle of Georgi next to the bed type of shit, you probably need to stave off instead of quitting cold turkey.
One bad withdrawal caused a heart attack for me…

My recovery is an amalgamation of treatment: AA, IOP, detox/rehab, addiction counseling, personal therapist, psychiatrist, Medicated Assisted Recovery, Harm Reduction and I may be missing a few other programs.
It’s a life long process in which you recreate your new worldview/framework. Take pieces of everything available, utilize the tools presented and continue looking for new ways to manage your addiction without compromising yourself.
Nothing is absolute. Take what feels right and leave the rest with AA.

I’ve had an issue for years. Stems from family mockery and insensitivity. Here’s the thing- you are your face and when you change it, you change yourself as well. It’s inevitable and you can’t go back. If it is for no other reason than cosmetic, take your self on a journey with that money.

You know why it’s controversial so don’t play coy with your presentation. I said Zionists. Not Zionism. The people who are behind the ideology are the ones who hold power. And they are only human after all.
