Secular Humanism (a good recovery starting point?)
One thing for certain in my own recovery from gambling addiction is Change. My thoughts, beliefs and approaches have altered dramatically over the years, What seems to be the case even during my zealot years was a common thread of Humanism. It was later that I was able to bring in and embrace things like critical thinking, mindfulness and reason, skills I am still learning. I always wondered within the structered recovery programs I followed, whether these skills would have been a great set of tools from early on. I think that would of helped and prevented some suffering along the way. I would like to hear what others have to say. (For a definition on what Secular Humanism is Wikipedia is as good as any)
Thanks
