About
Have you been involved with 12 step groups and found them disappointing, consuming, or even offensive?

Have you taken issue with concepts such as powerlessness, a Higher Power, and being forced to view yourself as an alcoholic or addict for the rest of your life?

Have you been told that if you leave a 12 step program, you will inevitably relapse?

Or are you simply curious about getting clean without a 12 step program?

There are other successful ways to stay sober. Join this community and talk about how you have done it or are trying to do it.

Let's take it one life at a time, rather than one day at a time.

If you are looking for a group that approves of 12 step programs, there are many to be found on LiveJournal. This is not one of them.


Note: Membership is moderated. Do not expect to be accepted if your LiveJournal was created ten minutes ago, you have only a handful of LiveJournal friends listed, you have only a handful of people who list you as a LiveJournal friend, and/or your journal is clearly for community-joining purposes only.

If you have a "real" LiveJournal but wish to join this community under another username, please comment in the moderator's journal (all comments are screened) under your real username, posting the name of the community you're requesting to join as well as the username you're using to apply to the community.
