Ultradad-
I've been thinking about you and your struggle with the 12 step tradition and if you should/want to do it or not. Is it the "higher power" aspect or that maybe you don't want to get involved in the AA route?
I went to a meeting today and a lady told me about these 2 guys that had the 12 steps available online and it explained each step and how to complete it. (they were supposed to be funny). If you're interested I could ask for their names and I'm sure you can google them. I'm thinking about checking it out. It was something like Charlie and Joe.
