This whole addiction thing is not black and white, there are many, many grey areas. We do ourselves and others a huge disservice when we think only in black and white.
Not everyone who gets sober and stays sober uses a program, most do, but some don't, we need to allow others their own truth.
We should not be arrogant and say that our way is the only way, that smacks of sheer egotism.
People all around the world have been getting sober for centuries using all different methods.
People all around the world have been addicted to all sorts of substances over the centuries for all different reasons too.
