Arizona Alcohol Drug Treatment

Do you ever wonder why there are more and more people who suffer from addiction? Why with all of our technology, scientific and medical advances, and some really smart people thinking about this problem-why do we seem to keep going backwards? Every week I read in the newspaper that there is a new pill that will finally "cure" this problem and there will be no more need to alcohol or drug treatment in Arizona, or anywhere else for that matter. With all the complicated theories and medical cures, at this point in time it appears the simple approach is still the most effective.

12-step meetings, behavior modification, adding in responsibility and accountability-these are the things that really do work, and have worked over the course of time. Until someone can prove differently, these are the optimal tools to rely upon.

"Therefore nothing can matter more to the future welfare of AA than the manner in which we use this colossus of communication. Used unselfishly and well, the results can surpass present imagination."
-Bill W., AA Grapevine 1960
