I'm looking for resources and groups that deal with marijuana addiction and use that ARE NOT a 12-step program. MA seems like it works for some, but I have no interest in relating it, or anything, to a god or higher power, etc. I get the 12-step principles, just looking for information on alternatives. TIA

I lumped them all together and went to AA so i don't know much about alternatives. The only thing I have heard of is Rational Recovery.

Even though it looks like a money making program and that's not what I'm trying to find.

SMART Recovery, secular and science based. The VA rehab I attended was based on the same principles and has kept me sober for almost two years. Face to face meetings are kinda scarce but they offer free online meetings several times a day.

Smart, SOS, women for sobriety, just look up alternatives to AA and you'll find a bunch.
