12 Step Worksheets

Posted by: custodian Date: Jul 27, 2013

There are two types of twelve step worksheets on TwelveStepJournaling.com. The first type of worksheets have been implemented into your Private and Public Groups, the second type is a combinations of questions that we have gathered from the internet, books and many other resources. For the second type you can simply copy the question you want to answer and paste it into your Personal Diary Book, Private Groups, and/or Public Groups.

Questions implemented into your Public & Private Groups

We have implemented questions from the book "The Narcotics Anonymous Step Working Guide - copy rights by Narcotics Anonymous" into your Private Groups and Public Groups. We did not use all questions from the book however we made sure to leave space that is designated for you to create your own custom questions. If you have the book, The Narcotics Anonymous Step Working Guide, any other book, or questions you would like to answer or your sponsor wants you to answer; you can type your own questions. This book can act as an excellent 12 Step Worksheets, which could be worked into any recovery program. The word "addiction" could be replaced with any subject of your choice such as alcohol, gambling, relationships, etc. You also have the choice to skip a question. Also, your sponsor may choose to create his/her own questions in a Public or Private Group. In this case, he/she would use the Create a Custom Question part of each step then save the entry in either your Public or Private Group.

Integrity

I was given the gift of abstinence. I say a "gift" because it came about because I was scared. I thought I was dying; literally. I thought I had serious liver damage. I mean, I drank for 30 years. So I stopped. But it turned out to be diverticulitis. Still serious, but not life threatening.

Adult Children of Alcoholics - The First Step

Adult children of alcoholics are people who have grown up in a family affected by one or two parents that were addicted to or chronically abused alcohol. People from these backgrounds become adults who live dysfunctional lives. This article deals with the first step as used by the organisation called 'al-anon' which is a society that teaches people how to recover from the effects of living with one or two parents addicted to alcohol.

Courage to Change - August 8

In Step Six I contemplate my life undergoing change-tremendous change. The great fear is this: If I shed many characteristics that stand in my way, what will be left? It is as though I face a great void, a terrifying unknown. Yet when I acknowledge how far I have come, I can see how much I want to change. The desire to grow and to heal has brought me to this uncomfortable point, because I am tried of the way I have been. My Higher Power is there to guide me when I am ready.

How to conquer my fear

I didn't know I needed to. I was to much making arrangements to make a daily planner. Just so I wouldn't have free time on my hands so when I quit it wouldn't be so hard on me. Then I started to read that fear was a big contributor to forcing people into relapse. And it all made perfect sense to me and as I sat back to listen to my thoughts , I heard myself scared of different things as well. I realized I too was scared of my fear. I feared fear also. And if I didn't face my fear then I was going to have minimal results in effort given.

Lost

I was given the gift of physical sobriety. I did not have to work for it. I though I was dying; literally. I had been drinking for over thirty years and thought I had liver damage. It turned out to be something else. Not life threatening. But it still scared me straight.
