Kasl, PHD. These Steps are featured in her book "Many Roads, One
Journey - Moving Beyond the 12 Steps".
"The
(addicted) woman is attacked not only for her failure at
motherhood, but for her abandonment of more general nurturing
and caretaking functions that are at the core of the female
role. 'Good' women are primarily concerned with the needs and
welfare of others... and when women are no longer willing or
able to serve.... - even for reasons beyond (their) control --
the response is usually not support or sympathy...."

Secular Recovery.
Still has some good material, even though it likes to give the
impression that all SOS
groups now call themselves LSR and that there is some sort of
endless litigation

The
Definitive Guide to Personal Growth, Self Improvement and
Self-Help
People do recover, every single day. By many different
means and methods, those who suffer from mental illness,
alcoholism and addictions, eating disorders, grief and
loss-through all of life's issues, people do get better. They
rarely do it alone. If help is what you seek, we hope you'll
find it here.
It is the philosophy of this author that any
and all recovery programs that help you to maintain abstinence
from alcohol and other substances of abuse are legitimate. In
fact, modern research (e.g.
Project MATCH ) has found that no form of addiction
treatment is superior to any other. In this spirit, Recovery
Net intends to take an eclectic approach to the treatment of
addictions. For this, it coins the name
ECLECTIC RECOVERY (ER). Good luck in your quest to enjoy
the benefits, freedoms, and comforts of a life in recovery.
