Just stuff I read from AA's survey |
I read that a while back, what the author(s) noted was that if the
people in recovery-AA-worked the program-the steps-they had a pretty high success rate, unlike what they tell folks in rehab. I think what they really fail to tell them is that if you work a recovery program and give it an honest effort you will succeed. Like they say,
the program works if you work the program.
