[QUOTE="Crayola13, post: 763790, member: 21066"] 12-step programs seem to have a high failure rate. There are other types of treatments. I don’t know why 12-step programs are still the gold standard, probably they are the cheapest. Sometimes drugs are just a symptom of an underlying problem. I’m not saying everyone who uses drugs or drinks heavily suffers from mental illness, but getting the person treatment for the reasons this started in the first place would be more effective, whether it’s anxiety, depression, boredom, social awkwardness, etc. [/QUOTE]
