The point of AA is “You” seeking an alternative life...oh, and it’s free...
unless you discount the very real pain of introspect and striving toward some sort of redeemed life...

That’s what I thought...that AA was to treat the reasonings behind the Drinking, not, the Drinking.
Glad I was on the right path.

For doctors though, the problem is that AA does not address chemical dependency. Funny thing is for most it isn’t a chemical dependency, but a habit (you brain reacts to triggers that you associate with drinking). Read “The Power of Habit”

The thing I love about the *A programs (NA, AA, GA, CA, CMA).... is that to a program they teach you the drinking or drugging or gambling is ONLY A SYMPTOM.
The DISEASE is self-seeking and self-centeredness.
