Misery love company!

That's why I left after 1 year. AA is a stepping stone and I used it as such. I haven't drank in over 9 years. However, drugs are a different story. High-five!

I think you are right . . . . maybe if they made it 10 steps they could avoid dragging me into it.

That is because AA's success rate is equal to the attrition rates.

Christ, cut them some slack. Generally, these are people who've hit rock bottom. They're admitting a lack of control, and they're doing it, more or less, publicly (anonymous or not, they're telling someone they don't wake up next to, "Hey, I have this weakness. I have this problem") Can't be easy. Have a heart.

It has EVERYTHING to do with Jebus, that's why it's bullshit IMHO.

Read each of those 12 steps again if you don't believe me.

How about they cut me some slack? It isn't like I haven't had my problems in my past, I didn't try to burden others with them.

I'd rather watch someone have god forced upon them than die slowly and painfully through liver failure.
