That is exactly my program! Alright I just ordered the first book mentioned as well even though it is backed up on amazon and won't ship for 2 weeks.
I think there is no harm in exploring all options. It is not like someone fully exploring another option invalidates your own recovery method if it was different. I think it is frustrating to take that attitude because it will only stunt our learning about addiction. Not all models work for everyone. The more the merrier in my opinion.
