When I first started to evaluate my drinking and realized I needed to break free, AA was all there was. Their power and influence still dominate the field of recovery to the point where many in their fellowship are made to believe AA is the ONLY WAY. 12-steppers are often programmed to dismiss ANYONE that recovers without AA as invalid, dry drunks that are sure to relapse because their addiction can do lots of push-ups in the parking lot. Complete nonsense.
How's it been going so far? Quitting before the addiction grows more powerful can save so much heartache. Congratulations on choosing to quit before you started drinking in the morning! 💪😊 Thanks for sharing.
