Alcoholism Recovery & Treatment

Question by : Can you be in different stages of recovery based on different drugs used?
If you stop drinking alcohol, but continue to smoke marijuana; can you be considered to be in the action stage in terms of your recovery from alcohol, but only in the pre-contemplation stage in terms of your recovery with your drug (marijuana) use?

Very deep question. The problem is that since alcohol is legal the records and statistics are all based on facts. With weed the opposite is true except within those states where it’s legal for medicinal use. The few outweigh the many and so does the answer. When smoking both together, common sense tells you that giving up the alcohol is going to be a driving board into the answer to the contemplation of giving up the weed too. There can’t be any answers, just guesses to this. Sense the addictive nicotine isn’t found in in it are we even certain that it is addictive? Good luck and God Bless
