The topic is over and done with
Bugs made her decision.

Thanks Everyone for sharing their thoughts
Please remember this is not our 12 Step Forum.

Not all SR members are interested in AA.
Nor do they have to be.
AA is not the only way people
find or continue recovery.

Thanks for your answer Steve. I do believe I am responsible for my sobriety, albeit it I use the gifts given to each human at birth. I am only saddened by the lenght of time it took before I realized the strength that was waiting to be utilized. I believe in empowerment not powerlessness, no matter we are all living lives free from addiction.

This is precisely what I believe.

In a meeting in Copenhagen recently a friend was reminded to clap with everyone else when he gave his sobriety date : they said, right in my opinion, we're not clapping for you we're clapping for AA (and by definition our HP's grace keeping us sober)

Just my view! (that's working! )
