I've attended AA off and on since 2005 - I find it varies greatly from group to group. Yes I've had ignorant people tell me I should go off meds. I go off on them and quote AA literature that says psych meds are A-OK.

Recently I've started attending Double Recovery meetings. They're an off-shoot of AA that is specifically for people with addictions and MI. I like it a lot better, because you can and are encouraged to talk about both. I'm just lucky that I live in a large enough city to have multiple DR meetings a week to choose from.
