AA and other 12 step programs: Not everyone is a weirdo.

-I hope that all the weird quasi religious memes, cult coded language, thinly veiled judgment, and indoctrination messaging doesn’t become so ubiquitous that people needing help are turned off.

-There are lots of level-headed, down to earth helpful people in AA. Unfortunately, the loudest are often the weirdest.

-If you are struggling, please know it is possible to come to AA/NA/DAA and find normal people that have recovered.

-There are folks that will let you have your own experience, won’t shove god down your throat, won’t try to tell you what to do or what to believe.
