AZ I have to say my whole first year in recovery I had HP problems. It was explained to me that I could use the group, a tree, a rock, whatever, just so it wasn't me or an individual.
Well.............................................. ...........being a good alkie I settled on a Harley Davidson Motorcycle. Yes, it's funny now, but I was dead serious when I did that, and you know what???????....................................... ......IT WORKED.
So to answer your question...............................ABSOLUTELY you can use the group. As we grow and change in recovery so do our perceptions of ideas and concepts. So for now, use the group if that works for you GREAT.
