Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: The philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-step programs is that people can recover from alcoholism by sharing with others and following the 12 steps of the program. They are not affiliated with any particular religious organization, and do not promote God, but rather a spiritual belief that there is something greater than the self. They do not promote cures for alcoholism because they believe that once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic, but instead emphasize recovery. While the primary purpose is to stay sober and help others achieve sobriety, this is their purpose, not their philosophy. Other 12-step programs are based on this same philosophy.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: Emotional lability is a common clinical sign of REM deprivation.
