Hi everyone!! I am an addict name Tom. My question is, for as many addics who say they love recovery, where is everyone for this site? I found it in the summer of last year and thouht it would be a good forum for recovering people to discuss working steps. It veery well can beif we all participate on a regular basis. I am willing. Is there anyone else? Lets get this site moving in the right direction by showing we care for the still suffering through our efforts of willingness to share our experience strength and hope.
Thanks!

I just sent this message to a member of our AA group, and want to also share it with you.
We already have a forum for called The Step Work Board, but its not really being used or supported by the various group members. The idea for it was to have one group member outline each of the 12 Steps week or bi-weekly, link to each step as its addressed in the Big Book, or other 12 step group conferrence approved literature, and also to the step in the 12x12, then group members could share their es&h on the current step or review the material left by the previous step, ask questions about the current step or previous steps that have been addressed, and this was also a great way to find a safe, confidential resource to work the steps that require writing with. (I don't suggest this as the method, accept for those who are truly homebound and unable to step into the recovery community in their area. However, i believe it could be a good starting point for many that haven't stepped over that threshold for whatever reason.)
There is a link to it at the top of the message boards, in the yellow area, on the left side. Check it out, and determine if you'd be willing to step up to the plate of being the person to address the 12 steps from the NA angle. Maybe share this information with other group members here and see if they'd be willing to, I truly believe its an asset on the site that is being overlooked.
