I want to say first and foremost that I stay neutral about the the twelve steps in a public forum and let you make the choice if it's something that might work for you. I am writing them here and you can research and choose for yourself to work the steps or not. Here we go.
1. We admit we are powerless over our addiction and that our lives have become unmanageable.
2. We came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of the higher power (God) as we understood him.
4. Make a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. We admit to the higher power, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. We are entirely ready to have the higher power remove all these defects of our character.
7.We humbly ask him to remove our shortcomings.
8. We made a list of all the persons we have harmed and are willing to make amends with them all.
9. We make direct amends whenever and wherever possible
10. We continue to take personal inventory and when we were wrong we admit it.
11. We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our concious contact with the higher power . Praying for knowledge of his will for us and the power to carry that out.
12. Having a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps we tried to carry this message to addicts, and to practice these principles in all out affairs.
