As far as participating in online communities, this is the most relevant to me. Learning about and then making my BP changed my perspective on addiction , not quite a 180 degree swing. I never thought any program would "work" for me, as I was never comfortable with a disease model, even though I had implicitly accepted the core idea and just gave fuel to the AV 's fire and allowed me to keep continuing the cycle.
Finding out about RR and AVRT pushed me passed those last 10 degrees in the arc of the swing and gave me the confidence (helped me find, pointed out the power resides within) to resolve to quit , full stop.
Coming here or not doesn't increase or decrease my resolve, it's more like a karmic debt to pass forward.
