Is There a Category or Sub-Category to Discuss Drug and Alcohol Recovery on Y!A?

Question by WELIV: Is there a category or sub-category to discuss drug and alcohol recovery on Y!A?
I am a recovering alcoholic and would love to discuss recovery on here. I would love to help other alcoholics and addicts and get help myself on these boards. But there doesn’t seem to be such a spot. If not here where is a good internet board to discuss recovery and help each other?

Because this is not meant to be a chat room or discussion forum, there isn’t anywhere here where it’s ok to discuss things at all. Some recovery questions are asked and answered under the Health category, while others are handled under the Sociology category.

This is an information exchange site — not a chat room or social contact site or discussion forum. Questions here must be seeking information or advice of general interest to the community. Answers must attempt to answer the question.

I did a really quick online search for “forums for recovering alcoholics” and got several good results. Try it yourself an you’ll see even more of them. Here are just a few:
