Hi Andrew
I use Life Ring as my primary recovery group. It has worked wonders in helping me stay sober, where AA failed for me. Don't get me wrong, I know AA is great for many, just not for me.
The website for LSR is
www.unhooked.com. There are f2f meetings, several email lists, and a fairly active chat. There are no steps or higher power. The primary idea is that you DO NOT DRINK/USE NO MATTER WHAT. Sobriety is top priority.
There is also a recovery workbook and several pamphlets, you'll find info about it at the website I gave.
There are a few others here that use Life Ring, perhaps they will be along to offer more insight.
The approach works for me, I am responsible for my own sobriety, not a HP. After struggling for nearly 2 years with relapses, I have finally found what works for me.
It's definately worth checking out, in my opinion.
Lisa
