At the very beginning, I did not accept rehab because of the god aspect of it and the push around the AA program and 12 steps. But, as I look deeper within myself I realize that the steps I have taken are not too dissimilar from those same steps taken using the 12 step program. The major difference is that my path is to accept you had an issue, put it in the past and move on with your life. There is no reason to sit and continue to dwell on having an addiction. Discussed in this writing is how to cope with anxiety, depression and most importantly triggers.
