  • What Are “Twelve-Step” Programs?
    What are “Twelve-Step” Programs? Traditional Twelve-Step programs outline a course of action for recovering from an addiction whereby participants proceed through twelve core developmental stages. Twelve-Step programs are a form of self-help in which members of a fellowship struggling with the same problem support each other. The Twelve-Step program originated with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) (http://aa.org). According to AA, the twelve steps are as follows: (1) We admitted we were powerless over alcohol—that our lives had become unmanageable. (2) Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. (3) Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. (4) Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. (5) Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. (6) Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. (7) Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. (8) Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing tomake amends to them all. (9) Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. (10) Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. (11) Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. (12) Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

  • Abuse of Prescription and Over-The-Counter Medications
    J Am Board Fam Med: first published as 10.3122/jabfm.2008.01.070071 on 4 January 2008. Downloaded from CLINICAL REVIEW Abuse of Prescription and Over-the-Counter Medications James E. Lessenger, MD, and Steven D. Feinberg, MD, MPH The nonmedical use of prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) medications implies that the user is us- ing them for reasons other than those indicated in the prescribing literature or on the box label. The abuse of these medications is a national issue. Intentional drug abuse of prescribed and OTC medicines has climbed steadily. Data from the 2005 National Survey on Drug Use and Health demonstrated that 6.4 million (2.6%) people aged 12 or older had used prescription drugs for nonmedical reasons during the past month. Of these, 4.7 million used pain relievers, 1.8 million used tranquilizers, and 1.1 million used stimulants. The nonmedical use of prescription drugs in the past month among young adults aged 18 to 25 increased from 5.4% in 2002 to 6.3% in 2005, primarily because of an increase in the abusive use of pain relievers. Physicians need to watch for prescription and OTC medication abuse. Treatment strategies include (1) inquiring about prescription, OTC, and herbal drug use at the initial examination (even though many individuals are drug-abuse savvy, some are naı¨veand do not realize that OTC medications can be problematic); (2) inquiring about drug use during office visits; (3) providing disposal containers that patients can use to dispose of their unused or unneeded prescription or OTC medications; (4) treating pain aggressively and appropriately; (5) practicing careful record keeping of prescription refills and controls over prescription blanks; (6) referring patients who are addicted to medications to 12-step programs such as Alcoholic Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, and Pills Anonymous; and (7) consider- copyright.

  • Scientific Studies on Narcotics Anonymous William White, M.A., Marc Galanter, M.D., Keith Humphreys, Ph.D., and John Kelly, Ph.D
    “We Do Recover” Scientific Studies on Narcotics Anonymous William White, M.A., Marc Galanter, M.D., Keith Humphreys, Ph.D., and John Kelly, Ph.D. Narcotics Anonymous (NA) rose in the mid-twentieth century amidst rising addiction to opioids and other drug-related problems among adolescents and young adults in the United States. Drawing upon the experience of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and other NA predecessors (e.g., Habit-Forming Drugs, Hypes and Alcoholics, Addicts Anonymous), NA grew within two developmental tracks—one in New York City (1949) and a second enduring one in southern California (1953). Following its near-death as an organization in the late 1950s, NA flourished and today exists as a significant recovery support resource in many communities and countries.1 A large body of literature exists on AA due to its longevity (85 years), progressive growth, international dispersion, integration into professionally directed addiction treatment, and its continuing adaptation to other problems of living. Additionally, a substantial body of scientific research exists on the potential role of AA participation as a predictor of long-term recovery outcomes, including a recently published systematic review of the most methodologically rigorous AA studies.2 Twelve-Step groups for dependence on drugs other than alcohol and secular and religious recovery mutual aid adjuncts or alternatives to AA have received far less public, professional, and scientific scrutiny (See Table 1 for representative groups and founding dates).

What feelings was I trying to change/suppress? 4. What changes in my personality occurred when I was “acting out” in my addiction? (For example: Did I become anxious, self- centered, apathetic, or mean, or passive to the point that I could not protect myself? Controlling and manipulative? Other behaviors?) 5. What changes occurred as my using progressed? 6. When did I come to the realization that my addiction was starting to become a problem? Did I make any effort to change? If so, what did I do to change? If not, why not? 7. In what ways was I manipulative and controlling when it came to getting and using my pills? 8. How have I blamed others for my behavior and my using? 9. To continue my pill use, what things did I do that were completely opposite to my values, principles, and beliefs? 10.

  • List of 12-Step Groups (And Other Groups That Adapt the 12-Steps Or Use "Anonymous" Or Have Adapted the Steps in Different Ways to Different Issues)
    Some people want THE list and proclaim it as such in media. But people are always starting and adapting groups that meet their needs. So please understand this is a very rough draft list of 12-Step groups (and other groups that adapt the 12-steps or use "anonymous" or have adapted the steps in different ways to different issues). Please note that the figures on the numbers of local groups are a rough approximation (primarily from 1997 data – so it's old!). Contact information on most groups, but not all, are on a website database at www.selfhelpgroups.org. They welcome any corrections and especially any additions at [email protected]. (Understand that people are always starting new groups, e.g., Pathways to Peace [www.pathwaystopeaceinc.com] for anger management, which was started by 12-Step people, but adapts only part of the Twelve Step program. Pathways to Peace Groups started first in NY State (6 groups), but after interest from Cleveland, there are now 4 groups meeting there. Nowhere else yet.) 12-Step Groups: Alcoholics Anonymous (international - 94,000 groups) Al-Anon Family Groups (international - 32,000+ groups) Alateen (international - part of Al-Anon Family Groups - 4,100+ groups) Abuse Alternatives Anonymous (1 group in Westchester, NY) ACOA - Adult Children of Alcoholics (international - 1,700+ groups) Adult Children of Sexual Abuse (4 groups in Florida) Adult Children of Sexual Dysfunction (several groups in Minnesota) Anesthetists in Recovery (national) ARTS Anonymous (Artists Recovering thru Twelve Steps, creativity,

    White, W. & Kurtz, E. (2006). The varieties of recovery experience. International Journal of Self Help and Self Care, 3(1-2), 21-61. The Varieties of Recovery Experience: A Primer for Addiction Treatment Professionals and Recovery Advocates William White, MA and Ernest Kurtz, PhD Abstract The study of alcohol and other drugs (AOD) is historically marked by three stages: 1) the investigation of AOD-related social and personal pathologies, 2) the development of personal and social interventions aimed at resolving AOD problems, and 3) a focus on the prevalence and patterns of long-term recovery from AOD problems. This essay honors this transition from addiction and treatment paradigms to a recovery paradigm by exploring the growing varieties of pathways and styles through which people are resolving serious and persistent AOD-related problems. A review of scientific and mutual aid literature is used to catalogue variations in: scope of recovery (primary and secondary chemical health and global health) depth of recovery (partial, full and enriched) types of recovery (abstinence-based, moderation-based, medication-assisted) context of recovery initiation (solo, peer-assisted, treatment- assisted) frameworks of recovery initiation (religious, spiritual, secular) temporal styles of recovery initiation (transformative change, incremental change, drift) recovery identity (positive, neutral, negative) recovery relationships (acultural, bicultural and enmeshed styles; virtual recovery) recovery stability/durability (At what point does present remission predict future remission?), and recovery termination (Is recovery ever completed?). After exploring the wide diversity of recovery styles and experiences that exist within Twelve Step fellowships and other recovery mutual aid 1 societies, the article explores the implications of the wide diversity in recovery experiences to the design and conduct of addiction treatment.
