Hi found this, which I have posted on GA & GamAnon forum. Thought it might be appropriate here as well :

I start in small subtle promising many ways things,

I promise you enjoyment and pleasure beyond your wildest dreams,

I deliver guilt and despair more horrible than your worst nightmare,

I promise you power and courage,

I give you feelings of powerlessness & hopelessness,

I will force you to live in fear always,

I promise you relief and escape from all your daily problems,

I create for you greater problems than you ever imagined,

I promise you many friends but

I allow you only isolation.

I promise happiness but

I create much sorrow.

I will steal from you your dignity,your families,your friends,your children.your homes,your demons.your spirit & your life.....For love, freedom & happiness are impossible in my presence.

So NEVER UNDERESTIMATE ME

I am devious & manipulating,

I have no preferences as to who I pick as my victim, rich or poor, young or old, black ,white, yellow or red.

I have killed men, women and children,

I have no conscience.

So if you have met me, always be aware if you think you can beat me... that I will be gone from your life and all will be well again.

NEVER FORGET that I will always be there, waiting in the dark shadows, just around the corner.

I am very patient and I will laugh in your face if I can lure you into my evil world of hell on earth again.

That is stunning!

I do not think i have ever read anything as powerful as that on the subject.Every line resonates everything that this disease stands for.But never forget that we as humans have immeasurable powers within to battle, and keep on battling till the evil is truly exorcised

Remember the curse is strong but we are stronger.
