it seems that a lot of the traffic in f & f, are about the interactions and pain it's caused by an active addict in their lives. or the newcomer who is just beginning to understand that they can't fix their addict. the focus is very much still on the addict, the drama that surrounds having someone active in their addiction, etc. i think what sofa is suggesting, is that if there was a forum that was a little more tailored to those who have moved forward, who still see themselves as codependent, and needing help and support, yet not interacting with a practicing a, that it would feel more right for them.

personally, i like visiting the forums and who they attract they way they are. but i get what she's trying to say, and i know that i could always still choose f & f. like "bikers in recovery" it would be "codependents in recovery", folks that used to be "using" but have moved on, and as such attracting a different set of people
