SAFE RECOVERY

Attention Parents and Youth...Please listen to this episode to hear about what you should expect if you go to AA or NA.

 

Parents please accompay your child to all meetings and all events in 12 step. There are no persons in charge and there are  no safety measures in place.

Here is a new site for bloggers that is troll free. Many bloggers left OPF and after Sinkin thinkin shut down ( although I hear its up again to post comments) we didnt have a place to go and communicate safely. 

 

Created by UK Blogger, mfc66, it is filling a void many of us all felt we needed. 

Ex Steppers, Ex Al ANON members and ex 12 step person of anykind are finding a safe haven here to discuss the many problems in and around the 12 step culture and how it has invaded our goverment, entertainment and healthcare. 

How could this be...a 1935 religion? Tune in Live ...

George Quant Talks About Quantum Meditation aka TM. How UCLA did over $100 million dollars in scientific research with regards to how helpful Quantum Meditation can be. 

One of Safe Recovery's top downloaded shows.  We are not broken. You are not broken. 

If you want to use a simple non religious type of de stresser, I highly recommend George's technique.

Ryan was 25. He lost his sister Sarah from Suicide last fall and I met him on the www.stinkin-thinkin.com site. The threads are still there. 

Ryan and I became friends. I connected as a mom and as a freind. He told me about how angry he was after spending 2 years at an all 12 step treatment center that didnt help him at all with his mental and emotional issues. 

Lots of phone converstions and emails and reading Ryan's posts as well as what he wrote on his own blog steppin on suicide.
