Yeah the poll needs an update. Before I was ready for treatment I really resented anybody trying to force it on me. It causes untold resentments and the addict isn't going for the right reasons. Although being clean is great, it's his choice to get clean, just as it's his choice to keep using, it's his life. You can however refuse to be involved with an active user as that's your choice. But ultimatums don't work. Recovery is a spiritual issue and it can't be forced onto someone.
