I would have to say NO! My ex spouse...used to be in AA and sponsored people and chaired meetings. He used to present that all the time. "Fake it til you make it."

I would only have to say it only teaches you to fake things all the way...and you just might get better at it. It grew and grew and everything about him is fake.

Sadly hes a pot head and always fakes being clean and sober. When I was abused by him he was very skilled in faking his way out of everything.
he even fakes emotional expressions and even learned how to fake caring. After a while I just looked at him one day as he faked an emotion and it was the most ridiculous thing I saw. It was pretty scary.

It can actually cause imbalances to your thinking and mind and corrupt it. Just be genuine and start from there. Genuine people are great people.
