Marijuana Anonymous

Steps 1, 2, 3 Workshop Resources

Start the Steps, we recover together… The first three Steps will be introduced by having volunteer members share how they have worked and continue to work these Steps, and then participants will meet in smaller groups to form fellowship connections, share, and discuss the selected prompts from the MA 12 Step Workbook.

We believe in the importance of working all 12 Steps with the guidance of a Sponsor, a fellow sober addict who has some experience in recovery, and can help you one-on-one in this process.

Breakout Room Discussion Prompts

These questions have been selected from the MA 12 Step Workbook and will be discussed in smaller groups with the help of a breakout room facilitator to lead the group.

Step 1 – Week One

We admitted we were powerless over marijuana, that our lives had become unmanageable. 

  • How did I try to control my using?
  • Was I withdrawn and isolated? If yes explain
  • What does surrender mean to me?

Step 2 – Week Two

Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. 

  • Do I have thoughts of using again someday, even though I need or wish to stop using? Explain.
  • What is my concept of a Power greater than myself?
  • Has a lack of open-mindedness contributed to my reaching a bottom? Explain

Step 3 – Week Three

Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God, as we understood God. 

  • How does self-will affect my life?
  • Do I try to control people, places, and things? Explain
  • What does turning my will and my life over to the care of a Higher Power mean to me?
