There are so many many options out there to choose from in drug and alcohol rehabs. I spend a lot of my time looking at what is being offered and thinking about the pros and cons of each type. I enjoy looking at and evaluating everything I can so as to offer whatever information possible to help people make the best choice for them. I have come across quite a few sites that really bash 12 step.

I readily admit I personally do not like 12 step. But I think some of the complaints go way overboard. I feel if you are digging into your pocket and spending your hard earned dollars you should get more than just a 12 step program at a drug and alcohol rehab center. Since 12 step information and meetings are essentially free, a center where you pay money can do better than that. However as an organization for people who have no money for drug or alcohol rehab, 12 step meetings are a viable choice. And to personally attack people who follow 12 step devoutly as a cult seems to be a tad extreme.

I think we need as many options as possible available to us in dealing with drug and alcohol addiction. You need to find the best choice for your goals, financial situation, and time available to deal with this problem.
