I encourage everyone to look into all the other programs out there, AA included, and find the one that speaks to their heart.

If someone tells you that theirs is the only way to sobriety.......run like heck.

Thousands of people get sober using many ways, we tend to forget that when we are "sticking up" for the one we use.
This is exactly the kind of reference to other programs I'm referring to.

"Many other programs"..."all the other programs"..."many ways".

Could you please name some of these other programs? Perhaps I could explore some of them. How can anyone become educated about them if no one says what they are?
