I guess a follow-up to the above is to ask more people like Velvet what kind of rate of success does she see in the recovery of cgs, or has she seen over the years and what seems the most effective. there is much discussion about the poor rate of success of addiction treatment programs. And then the online forums seem full of people who just can´t beat the addiction and go days, weeks, months and relapse over and over. I understand that the focus of this group is the loved one and success is measured in them taking control of their lives, living with less fallout from the addiction, understanding themselves better and what they want, etc., but knowledge over the addiction gives us information to inform our decisions, attitude, and actions.
