We're not running a raffle here. The program of recovery is guaranteed to work for all who sincerely try it. When I was new and feeling miserable, I couldn't see how recovery would make me feel any better. I read the 12 steps, and they were just words, and the actions suggested within them I had no real interest in taking. I was looking for someone who would do it for me. I kept hearing if you're in recovery and you're not happy it's because you're not doing it right. Finally when all else had failed I took the 12 steps seriously. Those who do not recover are those who can not give themselves to this simple program. If you do what we have done you'll be amazed before you are halfway through. It works if we work it and it does always.
