Well said!, shortandcute ... Well said!

Over the top, gung-ho AA members are often referred to as "AA NAZI's" for a reason.

These are exactly the kinds of people I don't want or need in my life and it all started with my family of origin way back when. So if I wanted to re-experience that kind of "group think", I reckon It'd be easier to just go on back to where it all started.

But I've come to find it's simply better to stay away from all of that trauma & drama and to simply find what works best for me in a more patient, gentle & kind environment.

I wish you good health & good healing, shortandcute ...
