bmoz,

I'm not seeking help for myself (I've never had a problem with addiction, frankly, I don't understand it). I am seeking help for my sister, brother and husband (his is a little different (abusing pain meds from doc)).

I am concerned for my sister who will be out of rehab soon. She will be court ordered to attend AA or NA, this will start the cycle all over again. She does it every time (this is like her 10th). She gets out of rehab (which she does great in) goes to AA/NA and find someone with the same problems and then they decide to party and relapse together, she disappears and the next time we hear from her is from jail. One day she's not going to be so lucky. I just think in her case she would be better off not to go to those groups, she should be as far away from anyone like her as possible.
