Hi Loveon2legs,

This is a forum open to all. In fact those sharing the 12 Step solution of AA are actually in the minority on this particular Newcomers forum - I share that because it was shared to me and it was the only thing which saved my life.

But there are plenty of other people sharing all sorts of methods of recovery here. You seem to be very happy in your recovery. Keep sharing it - no doubt it helps you to share, as it helps others to read it. Not only is it helpful and supportive, it may just save lives.
