As you know Im in recovery from alcoholism as well and haven't drank in over 10 years , I Owe most of that fact to being in a well known 12 step fellowship
So when I couldn't take it anymore it came to me that there must be a 12 step fellowship to help me with the emotional side , help me to learn how to cope on a day to day basis
I got on the internet and did some searching , found a book and read the perview , it talked about although i cant help what m body is doing I have a soul and a spirit and i can dpo any things to have a happy life on the inside, i loved this and it gave me a feeling of hope
I then found a 12 step online meeting for people living with chronic pain , i attended the online meeting and instantly found that i felt i was with people who knew what i fewas going through
Ive been to another meeting since and listening to what they say , doing the things ive heard the say helped them and though Im not completely cured inside I do feel alot better
obviously Ive only been to 2 meetings so I cant say oh yes it works but I do think anything is worth a go to try to gain a life thats not all about pain and illness
my experience with 12 step fellowships is it works if you work it and the program has saved my life before with the drink so why couldn't it help me with this
Ile keep you posted but I will say what works for one may not work for another but its always worth trying anything
