Green Gambling

Different groups?

What kind of anonymous groups are there out there? I am just really curious. I know of AA (alcholics anonymous), NA (narcotics anonymous), and I have heard of but don't know if they are true: Sexual Compulsives anonymous, over eaters anonymous, gamblers anonymous, etc... Is there some list somewhere of all the different groups? I couldn't find any on the net, so any help would be great.

1. I can't answer, but the one you mentioned was really SLA (Sex & Love An.) People who rely on sex or the need for love (affection)to do stupid things.
2. This is a very incomplete list of 12step groups: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Twelve-Step_groups More can be found at: http://brevity0.tripod.com/ There are well over a hundred groups that use the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous with minor word changes, which I find amazing since the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous work for only about 5% of those who attempt quitting that way, the same as quitting on ones own: http://web.archive.org/web/20041204214659/www.orange-papers.org/orange-effectiveness.html Most people (80% according to Harvard) take responsibility for their actions and quit or learn to moderate on their own.
