I am loving AVRT and it is working well... I was just looking for a record of long term success.
Hi Tammy,
I've been using AVRT since 1981. Back then, my Beast was recognised by me as my alcoholic mind. Jack Trimpey founded Rational Recovery in 1986, years after I quit forever. With that in mind, I also made use of AA and Gestalt therapy.
However, and I didn't know it as a Big Plan, since there was no organised AVRT to be known, I first created my own Big Plan by detoxing and quitting that day back in July 1981, and all days after, forever more.
It is worth noting that AVRT really is not suitable for comparisons when looking at longevity numbers. It really dosen't matter with AVRT.
Why are you interested in a record of long term success?
Cheers!
