Sherry, I've followed your post on the recovery group. I've tried to look at the 12 steps on the echo group but just get a general page. Is there a link I...
I would too be interested in what the 12 steps are, BEFORE I join the group. While 12 step programs seem to work well for people who use alcohol and drugs, or...
