You know what??? I'd find a DIFFERENT meeting and tell that one where to go!!! You get all kinds of meetings and THAT one stinks!! If ANYONE dared to tell me that I should NOT be on meds, they'd get a piece of my IRISH mind!!! I would probably slit my throat without my meds -- I'm a SEVERE chronic painer as well as have depression -- and i'll take my damn meds as long as I have both!!!

I have gone by the "rules" of AA for the last 18 years and have stayed clean/sober. How can I claim sobriety if I take meds?? Because I take these meds as prescribed and NOT to get high. I've never gotten high once - and never will.

So find yourself another meeting where they aren't so close minded. Some AA'ers are so darn strict, that they don't consider the person - only the RULES. Not me. If you don't consider the person, then what's the use? God bless and take care. Hugs, Lee
