>>6105748Coming up on 6 years sober (again), op. Welcome to 12-Step meetings. Not sure you will get anything out of those or that 'program', but the court will undoubtedly send you to them for a trial court-card signing (or you can forge these signatures, but you might get found out doing this). You will also have to do DUI classes, which cost a fair amount and probably won't do anything but cost you money (I did my DUI school when I was 18. Didn't stop drinking, drugging again until I was 20 after another arrest, diversion and insanity). I never thought I would relapse, but I did after about 11 years. Alcoholism and drug addiction does seem to be progressive.
I've also taken human services courses for the last few years, with an emphasis on addiction counseling. This provided an opportunity to learn about addiction medicine, science beyond the 12 Step framework, which can be limiting and even frustrating after a while for many people.
Good luck!
