Is the Twelve Step Model “One Size Fits All”?
Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous remain to be some of the most popular groups in recovery. For as long as the 12-step model has been around, it would make a lot of sense that one and/or both of these groups are usually the first-choice method with someone who is struggling from substance abuse. However, a 12-step program might not always be the best thing for everyone.

By teaching them life skills and handling cravings, addicts can regain their ability to choose and exercise power over addiction.

While I understand that, I would like to focus on what life can be like once addiction has been overcome.
