be prepared for the meeting to induce strong desire for drink and a hatred for sober living.

before you go, make sure you have no booze in the house and no spare money to buy any at the store (probably impossible in this day and age). you don't want to relapse, but AA can have a strong, negative effect depending on your personality.

have never heard this before. can't imagine it. A bunch of people saying dont drink over and over and talking about how shitty their lives were when drinking and how much better they are now. Also a bunch of ppl giving you their numbers for support/accountability.

does AA make you want to drink or is this something youve heard?

beyond belief. lol at the fraud of that program trying to vilify anyone who doesn't follow "their way" as miserable. give me a break. are you "happy joyous and free" constantly critiquing everything you do in a 12 step manner, having to go to meetings and hearing this vague talk of how "12 steps cured them" never discussing what about it cured them but this vague program. talking to losers nonstop who want to call you to tell you about their problems. a literal cult who every time people relapse they blame the person not the "program" but only give credit to the program when its successful. you dont see any insanity in how they discuss and isolate you people from "normies" its a crock of shit.

If you can drink one or two and not have the overwhelming urge to keep drinking, you are probably not an alcoholic. But if you only drink occasionally and every time there are bad consequences, who knows, maybe you are.

This was my reaction when I went to a couple. The meetings also were simply a religious cult. I’m not saying that religious cults can’t help some people, but they’re not for me. I also greatly resent the parroting of the notion that AA “is the only way.”

346 days sober here. I stopped going to meetings after 6 weeks but have maintained my sobriety anyway. I keep a list of all the reasons drinking would be a bad choice for me on my phone. I look at it when I’m out and want a drink.

I urge you to go regularly for at least a few weeks. Focus less on reacting to the “proles” and focus more on how following the steps can benefit you.
