...imagine any other way to stop getting drunk or doing drugs - or gambling, overeating or watching porn, for that matter. When we see Anne Hathaway's character in the film Rachel Getting Married at a 12-step meeting or when we watch D-list celebrities work the steps on VH1's new reality show Celebrity Rehab Presents Sober House, it's easy to think 12-step is not only the best way to get well, but the only way.

...television, I somehow manage to watch an alarming amount of it. Even worse, my bar seems to get lower as time goes on. There was a time when I confined myself to the highbrow scripted dramas, but following the endless eruption of new reality shows on MTV, VH1, and Bravo, I succumbed.
