elucubraAm I welcome here?
Nice. I was active in a forum that was “AA is the only way” and it made me sad.
Thanks for having me.
AA isn’t for everyone in my opinion. I’m happy to see SMART represented here.
If anyone wants more info, feel free to ask. Tons of online/in person meetings, free resources and stuff. Also a 24/7 non-SMART official Discord server with a ton of nice people (also has 12 step rooms, if that’s your thing).
welcome and thanks for the resources could i please get a link to the discord?
There you go.
Anyone who has a desire to stop drinking is welcome here, regardless of how you approach it, we’re all in the fight together.
I personally welcome alternative options to 12 step. IMHO, there’s multiple paths to recovery and having options is a good thing.
SMART doesn’t postulate itself as an alternative, but rather as a toolbox approach that helps people. We don’t feel that we are THE way, but something that helps. Multiple paths to recovery is literally in the SMART mission.
I call it the “paint rocks green” concept. If painting rocks green helps you achieve your goals, we’ll support you and cheer you on.
ZerlynaWe are not 12 step. Just here to help out each other.
If you want to make a basic post about SMART, add links tools etc, I’m happy to pin it to the group for a bit.
Lol “12 step” nah man you’re good.
