Much debate exists about which model is more effective in treating the problem of drug addiction. Some say AA is the only treatment that "works" while others choose the more human friendly non-religious CBT. AA uses rigid spiritual concepts based on their 12 steps and conducts their AA meetings on strict formats that were written seven decades ago. In AA "labels" like alcoholic are used which still holds a high degree of social stigmatism. Cognitive Behaviour programs like SMART (self-management and rehab treatment) sees substance abuse as a behaviour that can be changed, not a disease. CBT self-help methods are solidly based in comtemporary science and open discussions are encouraged. AA tells it members and "newcomers" that they need to find a higher power or god and relying on "self will" is bad and will lead to relapse.

If you were having problems with drugs, which would you choose for help, AA or CBT?

I've always liked girls. They turn me on like any other straight male, but lately, I find myself getting turned on to pics of shirtless guys. And it kind of shames me to admit it, but having sex with a guy sounds interesting. However, having an emotional relationship with another male sounds disgusting. I feel I can only have emotional relationships and "snuggle" with women. Please just give me some basic advice or what your thoughts are as this is quite confusing.

Is a person always racist or do they just have to be quiet and know that it is ugly or can they really choose to grow and change? Anyone thereself changed or have you known anyone who truly turned over a new leaf and worked to become a better person and learn compassion?

I told my friends i'd prefer they cut my limbs up and drag me behind a boat off the South African coast until i was eaten by a shark. If anything, i just don't want to be in a box in the ground.

I also suggested leaving my body in a stall at a rest stop.

I'm not sure if this is a habit, but I've always had to cover all the way up to my neck when I go to bed, I'm not sure why, but I get kind of frightened even if my foot pokes out from underneath the sheet.

Or for that matter are you embarrassed to go the bathroom in front of your pet ? I Don't care if it is a cat, dog or goldfish or whatever, I'm only interested in how you feel when you are seen at your most vulnerable by your best non-human friend. I'm also not interested in beastiality, only the verities of human shame and what it means. Answer the question and/or take the poll on my 360 page.

My therapist recommended this for me. I tried it and it seems to work great for changing my mindset on things. However, I think it is a little drastic to turn everything around. It may make you feel better, but why do we have to feel better about everthing? self help plan in a nutshell... http://www.thework.com/index.asp
The Work of Byron Katie
Four Questions
1. Is it true?
2. Can you absolutely know that it's true?
3. How do you react when you believe that thought?
4. Who would you be without the thought?
And remember to turn it around.
After you've investigated your statement with the four questions, you're ready to turn it around. Turnarounds are opportunities to experience the opposite of your original statement and see what you and the one you judge have in common. For example, "I'm angry at Paul because he doesn't understand me" turned around to "I'm angry at myself because I don't understand me." Is that as true or truer? Could it be that I don't understand mys

We sleep because our bodies need rest. But it seems that our minds never really sleep. We dream, resolve conflict, and work out problems while we sleep. So why is it that when we don't physically go to sleep our minds don't work tofull capacity the next day. And after seven days without sleep shows the begining signs of insanity?
