Question by almintaka: How well do alcohol recovery programs actually work?
Hi Everyone,
Alcoholics Anonymous (“AA”, spiritual), Rational Recovery (“RR”, cognitive), SMART (cognitive), Save Ourselves (“SOS”, cognitive) and other alcohol recovery programs all claim varying levels of success in helping alcoholics on the road to recovery. However, there is a lot of controversy surrounding their claims, as even a quick search on the internet will reveal. Viewing this chaos of opinions from “outside the box”, it certainly seems as though they’re all blowing smoke. Anecdotal arguments are used, tabloid-style quotations are touted as being authentic, and “my way or the highway” rationalizing is often used. One thing they all have in common is that apparently none of them has a handle on real statistics (though I could be wrong here; I just haven’t found any). In addition, independent studies (NIAA, Dawson) have shown that these programs are no more successful than no program at all. What’s your opion? Do one or more of these programs work better than nothing?

I think any recovery program works only as well as the time & persistance the addict puts into staying clean.

Overcoming Addiction through Rational Recovery
Jan 11th
I was once an alcoholic and overcame my addiction through Rational Recovery. I don’t go to endless 12 step meetings or need to run around life talking down empowerment or admitting I am still an alcoholic every time I speak. People who speak negativity into their life become powerless, but that condition is a choice. Success is also a choice, and I chose empowerment over failure. … rational recovery alcoholism alternative to AA alcoholics anonymous addiction sobriety …
