Hi Alexis,

I've been around slaa for about one and a half years now and started working the steps, diligently with a sponsor, six months ago. This is a tough addiction to come to terms with. I go to a meeting every two weeks that's the most I can do because of work commitments so I do online meetings as well. I've found these really helpful, somewhere to go especially when my obsessions are driving me crazy. I've been able to express how I feel and what I'm going through there and I've had some good feedback from the members. Here's the web address: http://www.slaaonline.org/index.htm
I really relate when you talk about being taken over by this addiction and how it affects every aspect of your life. Also the pain, anguish and devastation it causes to those we live with. It's so important for us to be in contact with other recovering addicts, to share experience, strength and hope. I for one couldn't recover alone and wouldn't want to. Hope to see you online soon.

Caprice.
