Cocaine Anonymous is a Fellowship of men and women who meet regularly to help each other Stay Clean... ca.org cocaineanonymous.org.uk The Twelve Steps of Cocaine Anonymous These are the twelve steps, which are suggested as a programme of recovery. 1 We admitted we were powerless over cocaine and all other mind-altering substances — that our lives had become unmanageable. 2 Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. 3 Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. 4 Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. 5 Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. 6 Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. 7 Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. 8 Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. 9 Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. 10 Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. 11 Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. 12 Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to addicts, and to practice these principles in all our affairs. Please Reach out, look at the Meetings List in The Video... STEP ONE: We admitted we were powerless over cocaine and all other mind-altering substances—that our lives had become unmanageable. Our powerlessness operates on three levels: (1) A physical allergy to cocaine, which makes it virtually impossible for us to stop using once we start; (2) A mental obsession, which makes it impossible to stay sober permanently on our own (pages 24 and 34); and (3) A spiritual malady, which separates us from our Higher Power’s ability to get and keep us sober. Many of us assumed that Step One meant we couldn’t get high anymore because we couldn’t handle using at all. In fact, it really means that barring divine intervention, we are unable to stay away from that first hit, line, or whatever (pages 24 and 34), and that we will use again and again, no matter how much we want to stay sober. The second part of Step One refers to how we are unable to manage our lives, even when we are sober. One example of this unmanageability is being “restless, irritable, and discon-tented” (page xxviii; other examples are found in the second full paragraph of page 52). Step One is the foundation of the entire Twelve-Step process. Without a full understanding of what this Step means to us personally, we can’t expect to make much progress on the other Two useful questions for deciding whether we are really addicts are, “Can I stop permanently, if and when I want to?” and, “Can I control the amount I use once I start?” If the answer to either question is no, we probably are addicts, according to the Big Book.
