I don't know which course you are talking about but why not? I think anything you can do to add to your recovery toolbox is a great thing. Let us know how it goes!

Never heard anything about it, until I looked it up then.

Have you tried any of the many free programmes around (AA, SMART, LifeRing etc) ?

Sorry Neo - because it sells a good or service, it's a commercial link by our rules, and I can't allow you to link to it here.

I still think the free options are best to try before the paid ones but it's your dime, man.

Best of luck with whatever you decide

No idea neo...

For me, I had to start off with therapy, and continue with aa. It was an addiction specialist, outpatient rehab. If this thing you're looking at isn't an accredited rehab or therapist of some type, I don't know if I'd trust it.

Anyone who expects "payment" on the heels of a patient's addiction does not have the patient's/member's good health as a priority.
This is the only reason i believe SR and AA (although AA is not for me) are the only true paths to recovery. It's not to mean that other methods cannot work, it's just my opinion that business and recovery do not mix.

You live in a country with socialized medicine. In America, business and recovery go hand-in-hand.

True. Contrary to popular belief, we pay through the roof by way of taxes so it is far from "free".. However when it comes to health how can you put a price on it? Nobody actually wants to be in a hospital but if you must go in an emergency i couldnt fathom the hospital asking for a credit card to cover that ruptured spleen.
