12-Step vs Therapy: What Actually Worked for This Navy Chief?

When you're fighting addiction, is a 12-step program, therapy, SMART Recovery, or another path the right answer?

U.S. Navy Veteran and retired Navy Chief Rob Diedrich explains that recovery isn't one-size-fits-all. Some people find success through therapy. Others through SMART Recovery, faith, peer support, or different treatment approaches.

For Rob, the breakthrough came through a 12-step recovery program and having people around him who were committed to staying sober.

His message is simple: find the recovery path that helps you stop making destructive choices, build support around you, and keep moving forward.

Rob shares his experience with alcoholism, long-term sobriety, military addiction culture, and recovery in this conversation with The MisFitNation.
