FB Recovery

Published

Is there any recovery pages on Facebook solely for medical professionals? I'm assuming it's private, so I would need an invite to join! If anyone knows of one, please contact me! Thanks! :)

Is it very active?

No, it's really not. There's a narcotics anonymous page that's very active- I like it better :-)

Are these public groups or? How can you get in to it?

Search in Facebook - narcotics anonymous - it's a closed group but click join and someone will accept you to the group :-)

Why would you want to do a N/A on FB?????

It's a closed group , only members can see what's posted.

It's still FB.

Yes it is still FB, ? How getting proof you are attending........and there are skillfull hacking programs that " junk" gets posted appearing from you....you, and sometimes it can be very hurtful and object able.......this actually happened to me last week...... I just personally do not see how a live, in person, real 12 step program can be beat......just my humble opinion......

The 12 steps work, if you work them, and after a while you start living them , experience the promises....... I advise go to a real live meeting.....

I didn't see anyone saying that they attend FB NA instead of real-life NA. I go to real life AA, am a member of that group's FB page, and read and post to a few sobriety subs on reddit.

Although I have been a member of a closed forum for mental illness support for nearly 16 years. I've met some of them in real life and consider many of them to be close friends. That forum got me through some very tough times. Maybe it's the age difference - I'm in my 30s - but I have no problem connecting online with other people?
