Im not an alcoholic and I do sometimes go to open AA meetings and hear the recovery.

Its my understanding that AA is not just to talk about alcohol, it is also to talk about all the underlying issues. But a point comes where a new fellowship needs to be formed, which, as you say is how slaa and na etc was started. Where and why an issue changes from the character defects to be dealt with and becomes a whole new focus in itself, I'm not sure if it has been defined, but people just seem to know, and then go off and create another fellowship.
My feeling about the schizoid disorder (and the other disorders as well for that matter) is it would be appropriate and helpful to have a fellowship with this as the central focus.
My vision is that if there were a small group of us to work the steps and work in fellowship and write, it woudl be a basis. I have no idea if I can bring this about, but I am still doing the footwork and as I understand it, the results are not up to me. I feel exposed and on a limb here. But I believe my ex sponsor died of this disorder, or elements of it, as well as others who have been close to me. She had those invasive thoughts - she thought of herself doing things that disgusted her..... any way I wont tell her story here, but I know the power of fellowhship has the power to melt those walls of isolation and self hate. .......... thers more to say, maybe bit by bit I'll tell.

If thers anyone you know who may be helped by this or otherwise interested, I'm here.
I'm working on a website with onfo. In the meantime being here has helped, though, also brought up all my issues, fear of rejection, of being isolated, etc, etc.
