We never graduate in recovery.
We never Graduate in recovery
it is a daily reprieve.A process one day at a time one moment at a time. For that I will never graduate this program of recovery.
This program of recovery is a process. If I think I have it, and so called graduate; then I am in to "Ego" and I am asking for "Big" trouble.
"Think the drink through", play the tape in your head about the last drunk you had, before you act on the thoughts of drinking.
Every place in the world has help for people who want it.
God is with us every step of the way.
“With Total Surrender goes the obsession”.
I am the problem my thinking is the problem.
If I take the steps in order One through Twelve, don’t change the periods and commas, don’t forget to dot the i’s, or cross the t’s, and don’t change the meditation, to medication, I will be free today.
Don't get me wrong those who are in need of medication from doctors take them.
Some people need medication.
I am not a doctor.

Here are the steps we took, which are suggested as a program of recovery:
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 to make 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 it 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.
Many of us exclaimed, "What an order! I can't go through with it." Do not be discouraged. No one among us has been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles. We are not saints. The point is, we are willing to grow along spiritual lines. The principles we have set down are guides to progress. We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.
Our description of the alcoholic, the chapter to the agnostic, and our personal adventures before and after make clear three pertinent ideas:
(a) That we were alcoholics and could not manage our own lives.(b) That probably no human power could have relieved our alcoholism.(c) That God could and would if He were sought.Reprinted from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, with permission of A.A. World Services, Inc.
