While there similarities among chemically dependent people, there are also differences. Each individual's history of addiction and recovery is unique, which is why it is important recovering people frequently attend AA or NA meetings. Over and above what one gets, there is much that one can give. There may be someone who needs to hear your particular story. It will elicit a response in one individual. And even if the event was not unique, it may be the way you describe it that triggers another person's recovery. We all have something unique to contribute. We should not withhold it from others.
