I know there is a fellowship for that Marijuana Anonymous - The Netherlands I have never been near a meeting, but I would defiantly check it out myself if I had the opportunity... I'm a hopeless pothead and alcoholic who has a daily reprieve from how I was living... XA-Speakers - The lights are on! is a talk I have listened to online my only connection with the MA fellowship... worth checking out... While a workbook would undoubtedly be good the 12 steps are intended to be worked with someone who has gone ahead before you...
Great to hear of this positive step man... Keep up the good work...
thanks for the XA link....There are no NA meeting near my city that I can combine with a job, and the local AA appareantly did not want me in cause i'm not an alcoholic (WTF!!!)...it will be very refreshing to listen to the story's of fellow addicts....
