12 step groups can help so tremendously, except, and this is a big one - it needs to be something he wants. If you are the one pushing to get him to go, I can suggest a great 12 step program for you - CoDA. And that was so recursive, it boggles my mind. A codependent telling another likely codependent to go to a codependency 12 step group.

Yikes.
